Xanadu and Bluefors Partner on Cryogenic Infrastructure for Utility-Scale Quantum Computing

Xanadu Quantum Technologies Limited, a leading photonic quantum computing company, and Bluefors, the industry-leader in cryogenic solutions, announced today a strategic partnership to develop a novel, high-performance cryogenic prototype for utility-scale quantum computing (USQC). This work aims to realize a shared vision of scalable modular cryogenic infrastructure for USQC.

This partnership represents a key milestone for Xanadu and Bluefors’ joint development efforts. The USD $ multi-million collaboration will leverage Bluefors’ cutting-edge cryogenic solutions and aims to establish a foundational blueprint not only for Xanadu’s planned USQC data centre, but for all future USQC data centres.

“Until recently, the industry assumed that USQC would require massive, industrial-scale cryoplants,” said Dr. Christian Weedbrook, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Xanadu. “Our collaboration with Bluefors has yielded a concept that integrates their most advanced technology into a compact module. This approach is expected to remove the need for traditional cryoplants, greatly improving the scalability and economics of future quantum data centres.”

Looking ahead, Xanadu and Bluefors plan to utilize insights from this development to engineer a mass-manufacturable cryogenic module tailored specifically for single-photon detectors and USQC in a data centre environment.

“Bluefors and Xanadu share a vision of making utility-scale quantum computing achievable,” said Kim Povlsen, Chief Executive Officer of Bluefors. “We are delivering a high-powered, modular and cryo-tested solution that combines cooling and quantum infrastructure designed to grow alongside our customers’ technology roadmaps. By meeting the cooling demands that infrastructure investments need to scale, we help customers optimize time-to-value and build a strong foundation to accelerate the next generation of fault-tolerant quantum computers.”
