A Real Quantum Hackathon — by Harmoniqs, Pasqal, & Microsoft
STEPS:
1. Apply here: https://form.typeform.com/to/IxCLtTrg
2. Request to Join
Harmoniqs, Pasqal, and Microsoft are co-hosting a one-day, invite-only hackathon for quantum researchers working on neutral atoms, quantum error correction, and optimal control.
Participants will work directly at the pulse level on Pasqal's analog Rydberg processor via Pasqal Cloud. Challenges are designed around open problems in quantum optimal control and neutral-atom hardware and will be shared ahead of time with those who are chosen to participate.
What's included
Pulse-level access to Pasqal's analog Rydberg processor via Pasqal Cloud
Harmoniqs' premium toolkit access for pulse-level optimization + engineering support on-site
GPUs
Keynote speakers and technical talks
Who should apply
Graduate researchers in neutral atoms, quantum error correction, physics, and mathematics.
Quantum computing researchers from academic or industrial labs.
Quantum software engineers with hands-on hardware experience.
Format
You can apply as an individual or as a team, participants will be admitted by selection. Total cohort: 20–25 participants across 4–5 teams. Applications close July 24.
