The hybrid cloud will enable a flexible infrastructure of emerging technologies to supercharge the discovery of materials, some of which we haven’t imagined yet.

:IBM Chief Executive Officer Arvind Krishna (left) and Director of IBM Research Dario Gil are pictured with a 10-foot-tall and 6-foot-wide "super-fridge,” a dilution refrigerator larger than any commercially available. The “super-fridge” is being custom built by IBM to effectively support quantum systems as they scale to the thousands and eventually million-plus qubit systems of the future that will be capable of solving problems out of reach of today’s most powerful supercomputers.

The convergence of emerging technologies allows us to address the discovery process in a fundamentally new way. Once labelled promising but distant, quantum computers are developing steadily and show potential to simulate complex molecules on the fly, accurately and rapidly predicting the outcome of chemical reactions and helping us discover entirely new classes of materials.
