Visitors from Equinor

August 7th we had the pleasure of welcoming researchers from Equinor to our hub. A group of strong researchers, including mathematicians, physicists and software engineers, have spent significant time and effort looking into the quantum opportunities for their company.

The Hub’s own Aleksandar Davidov shared promising results on quantum boosted predictions and optimization for Ruter while Tobi Giesgen, who is leading Equinor’s quantum technology project, and colleges presented interesting ideas on the prospect of applying emerging quantum technology within their company. After sharing and discussing experiences and expectations, our visitors got the chance to play around with our own quantum computers, Hugin and Munin.

We look forward to their next visit!

Tobi Giesgen, Quantum technology project leader at Equinor, is running a quantum circuit at Munin. Unfortunately, Munin was not in top shape that day as our CNOT gate was flawed due to an error in calibration the week before.
