Quantum Leap: Rigetti Joins Supercomputer Project
28 Jul
Summary
- Rigetti Computing partners on new hybrid quantum-classical supercomputer.
- TangleLab project receives U.S. National Science Foundation grant.
- The system will serve as an open testbed for researchers and educators.

Rigetti Computing is deepening its role in quantum research infrastructure through a new collaboration to build TangleLab, a hybrid quantum-classical supercomputer. The project involves Hewlett Packard Enterprise and the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, supported by a U.S. National Science Foundation grant.
TangleLab is designed as an open testbed, providing researchers and educators with access to cutting-edge quantum computing capabilities. This partnership embeds Rigetti's Novera system hardware within HPE's high-performance computing stack.
The initiative aims to foster practical applications of hybrid quantum workflows. Successful implementation could lead to future contracts, system upgrades, and broader deployments, positioning Rigetti's platform advantageously against competitors like IonQ and D-Wave.
