MQSC at SC25: Quantum-HPC Integration on the World Stage
At Supercomputing 2025 in St. Louis, MQSC’s CTO Lukas Burgholzer showcased the joint work with IQM on quantum-HPC integration — demonstrating how QDMI is turning quantum-classical workflows from concept into production reality.
Supercomputing (SC) is the world’s premier conference for high-performance computing — and at SC25 in St. Louis, quantum-HPC integration took center stage. MQSC’s CTO Lukas Burgholzer delivered a flash talk at the IQM booth, presenting the joint work on connecting IQM quantum systems to HPC environments via QDMI, the Quantum Device Management Interface.
The work builds on close collaboration with TUM and the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre as part of Munich Quantum Valley — and represents exactly the kind of cross-ecosystem effort that turns research progress into real, deployable workflows. Quantum hardware, software, and supercomputing infrastructure finally meeting not just conceptually, but in practice.
SC25 was an important moment to bring this work to an international audience of HPC professionals and researchers — and a strong signal that quantum is becoming a serious part of the HPC conversation.
