Robert Parrish, Head of the Quantum Chemistry division at QC Ware, and Matt Johnson, CEO of QC Ware, review computations on large metalloproteins, as Quantum software startup QC Ware launches a quantum-inspired software platform called Promethium to speed up the simulation of large molecules on conventional computers, in Palo Alto, California, U.S., March 29, 2023.Quantum computers promise to be millions of times faster than today's fastest supercomputers, potentially revolutionizing everything from medical research to the way people solve problems of climate change. The wait for these machines, though, has been long, despite the billions poured into them.
