Diraq ranked #1 corporate research institution in Australia by Nature Index

Diraq is pushing quantum computing beyond the lab by focusing on how it can be built and scaled in the real world. Rather than relying on specialised, experimental setups, its approach uses silicon-based qubits that can be manufactured using the same processes as conventional computer chips.

This shift is important because it tackles one of the biggest challenges in quantum computing: moving from small, fragile systems to large, reliable machines. By using established semiconductor techniques, Diraq aims to produce quantum processors with higher consistency, better performance, and a clearer path to mass production.

In practical terms, the work highlights a broader transition in the industry - from proving that quantum computing works, to figuring out how to build it at scale using existing technology.
