IonQ and SDT partner to bring quantum computing and networking to Asia-Pacific

IonQ will supply Korea's SDT with a Superion 256 quantum computer and its first silicon-vacancy quantum memory module deployed in South Korea. The Superion 256 is planned for an SDT customer there, with both firms collaborating on a hybrid quantum-classical data center. SDT will build a quantum manufacturing and integration facility in Gumi, hosting IonQ's SiV memory packaging, system assembly, and commissioning. CEO Niccolo de Masi cited growing global Superion 256 demand and continued quantum cancer and biomedical research. SDT's Jiwon Yune said the Gumi site would serve IonQ's global supply chain, and SDT will join a separate in-country cancer center project.
