Qilimanjaro

Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech is a Barcelona Supercomputer Center spinout founded in 2019 that develops quantum computing solutions combining quantum annealing and gate-model quantum computing approaches, creating hybrid quantum-classical systems that can solve optimization problems and quantum simulations for industries including finance, logistics, and materials science, leveraging Spain's supercomputing expertise and European quantum initiatives to advance practical quantum computing applications with focus on near-term quantum advantage in optimization and simulation problems. In September 2025, Qilimanjaro announced a strategic partnership with Qblox, a Netherlands-based quantum control hardware company, to integrate Qblox's control electronics with Qilimanjaro's superconducting quantum processors, enabling enhanced scalability and performance for their quantum computing systems through advanced control and readout capabilities. In October 2025, Qilimanjaro joined the IMPAQT UA cooperative consortium as the first analog quantum computing company, focused on building interoperable and scalable quantum systems through collaborative research and development with other European quantum technology organizations. In October 2025, Qilimanjaro Quantum Tech and QURECA signed a collaboration agreement for quantum education, including workshops on analog and hybrid quantum computing with hands-on access to Qilimanjaro's platform to advance quantum computing education and workforce development.

2025 Developments: In October 2025, pioneered QiliSDK, an open-source Python framework.
