2. Its 54-qubit Sycamore processor was able to
perform a calculation in 200 seconds
that would have taken the world’s most powerful
supercomputer several days

AND ANOTHER TASK
We are computing the quantum training for neural networks
The quantum computer can find solutions using exponentially less
time and energy.
ONE TENTH OF
ENERGY COSTS
NOT PRONE TO
FALSE MINIMA
AT LEAST TEN
TIME FASTER

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?
TRAINING OF NEURAL NETWORKS
the most difficult and
resource hungry task in
artificial intelligence.
is an open problem and it is
difficult to solve with classic
technologies.
11. OIL COMPANIES
OUR TARGET MARKETS
OIL & GAS COMPANIES
At first, we are focusing on a specific subset of the market so as to solve real problems,
we need to get into the specifics problems.
ENERGY & POWER
COMPANIES
12. CUSTOMER SEGMENT & KEY ACTIVITIES
We will create tailored algorithms for our clients
THAT WILL BE:
-Not pure customers ( between strategic partners and clients)
-Few but very big
-That want to be protected from the competition
We will patent together = our clients will have the I.P. on that solution.
13. Future business models will likely be an offer of
“algorithms-as-a-service” to commercial clients or
software licenses to hardware companies.
While fully fledged commercialization is not to be
expected in the near-term.
AFTER 3-5 YEARS
14. COLLABORATIONS
We are already testing our algorithms on existing hardware such as IBM Q*
Already have a scientific collaboration as
university researchers with important quantum
computing hardware firms
and another scientific collaboration with an oil
and gas industry (under U.D.A).
