qBraid Building the Quantum Cloud - Tarini Hardikar

Quantum computing is transitioning from a field of isolated experiments to an interconnected ecosystem of hardware, software, and users. At qBraid, we build the infrastructure to make that transition possible, from cloud-based access to quantum devices and simulators, to education and training platforms used by thousands of students, researchers, and developers worldwide.This talk will explore how qBraid’s ecosystem, including qBraid Lab, qBook, and the qBraid SDK, accelerates learning, experimentation, and collaboration across hardware and frameworks. We’ll discuss lessons learned in designing accessible quantum platforms, the challenges of hybrid quantum–classical workflows, and how open-source and cloud-native tools are shaping the next phase of quantum software innovation.
