Innovation is pouring out of the big technology companies. From hand-controlled augmented reality glasses at Meta Platforms, self-driving car commercialization at Alphabet, and robot-controlled warehouses at Amazon,

Microsoft has introduced Majorana 1, a quantum chip with a "Topological Core" architecture, potentially enabling powerful quantum computers within years instead of decades. The breakthrough stems from a newly developed material called a topoconductor,

The opportunity for Microsoft to leverage its leadership in cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI) with new enterprise-scale quantum solutions highlights a significant long-term growth potential. Here are three reasons I believe Microsoft is the new king of quantum computing.

The tech giant’s researchers say the advance could lead to vastly more powerful computers.

D-Wave, Rigetti, and Quantum Computing Inc. are enjoying yet another boost in the wake of a major announcement from tech giant Microsoft.

Microsoft on Wednesday announced Majorana 1, its first quantum computing chip. The achievement comes after the company has spent nearly two decades of research in the field.

Microsoft Corp. announced its first quantum computing chip, a major step in the company’s effort to produce devices that might someday solve problems beyond the reach of modern computers.

Microsoft has made progress with topological qubits, but they’re still far from a full-scale quantum computer.
