On World Quantum Day, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu launched India's first indigenous quantum computing testing facility at SRM University in Amaravati. This facility, known as the Amaravati Quantum Reference Facility (AQRF), aims to position Amaravati as an international quantum computing hub. During the event, Naidu witnessed the initiation of a live quantum system, with the cooling process of the Amaravati 1Q system being triggered virtually from Medha Towers in Gannavaram. The facility will house an IBM 133-qubit quantum computer and has established over 80 partnerships with industry and academia. This initiative is part of India's National Quantum Mission, which aims to enhance the country's sovereign quantum infrastructure and promote innovation in quantum technology. The launch of AQRF adds an indigenous hardware dimension to the existing quantum cloud and skilling infrastructure at Amaravati Quantum Valley, aiming to position it among the top five global quantum hubs.
