About company

IonQ Inc, established in 2015 by Chris Monroe and Jungsang Kim, is at the forefront of developing quantum computing technology. Born from over two decades of academic research and initially supported by $2 million in seed funding from New Enterprise Associates, along with a license for core technology from the University of Maryland and Duke University, IonQ aimed to transition trapped ion quantum computing from a theoretical concept into a marketable reality. Within three years of its inception, the company successfully attracted an additional $20 million in investments from notable entities including GV (formerly Google Ventures), Amazon Web Services, and NEA. This influx of capital facilitated the creation of two of the world's most accurate quantum computers. IonQ's business revolves around the advancement and commercialization of quantum computing, a cutting-edge field expected to revolutionize various industries by offering unprecedented computational power and efficiency.
