Moreton Bay swoops in to poach Brisbane’s $1b quantum supercomputer
Moreton Bay has taken over the plans for a billion-dollar quantum supercomputer that was initially set to be built at Brisbane Airport. PsiQuantum has begun preliminary work at the Moreton Bay Central precinct, with a formal groundbreaking scheduled for June. The project is backed by significant state and federal government funding, and the new site is expected to support the necessary infrastructure for the supercomputer.
- ▪PsiQuantum has abandoned plans for a quantum supercomputer at Brisbane Airport.
- ▪The new site for the supercomputer is at Moreton Bay Central, about 22 kilometers north of Brisbane's CBD.
- ▪Construction is set to begin formally in June after preliminary work has already started.
