India's First Indigenous Quantum Computing Facility

planned

India's first indigenous quantum computing testing facility will be launched in Amaravati, Andhra Pradesh, on April 14, 2026. The facility aims to position Andhra Pradesh as a global hub for quantum research, innovation, and hardware development. It will be launched at SRM University Amaravati and includes a virtual launch of a quantum facility center at Medha Towers in Gannavaram. The project is part of the Amaravati Quantum Valley initiative, which aims to transform the region into a global quantum computing hub, hosting an IBM 133 qubit quantum computer and collaborating with over 80 industry and academic partners. The facility focuses on core technologies such as cryogenics, precision electronics, and quantum-grade fabrication, with applications in defense, healthcare, and semiconductor manufacturing. The launch event will feature live demonstrations of quantum systems.
