IonQ Executive Chair Joins Panel with NVIDIA CEO to Discuss Quantum at NVIDIA’s First-Ever Quantum Day

March 18, 2025 --

IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), a leader in the quantum computing and networking industries, today announced its participation in NVIDIA’s first-ever Quantum Day, taking place at GTC on Thursday, March 20, in San Jose, California. IonQ will share details of several recent real-world demonstrations of quantum-accelerated computation for commercially-relevant applications alongside collaborators and partners Amazon Web Services (AWS), Ansys, AstraZeneca, and NVIDIA. Additionally, IonQ Executive Chair Peter Chapman will speak on IonQ’s progress in quantum on an exclusive industry leadership panel led by NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang.

“IonQ is looking forward to joining NVIDIA GTC’s first-ever Quantum Day to showcase how quantum computing is delivering value to enterprises today,” said Chapman. “Our focus on commercial-grade quantum systems is enabling real-world applications across industries, and we look forward to demonstrating significant progress at GTC.”

IonQ President and CEO Niccolo de Masi said, “The massive investments in quantum computing from the world’s largest technology companies underscore its transformative impact—not in the distant future, but today. 2025 is set to be a defining year for IonQ as we drive an inflection point in the quantum market. With enterprise-grade quantum systems already in use and expanding quantum networking capabilities, we are accelerating the era of commercial quantum advantage. By integrating cutting-edge technology from partners like NVIDIA, we are ensuring that quantum computing is not just a possibility for tomorrow, but an indispensable tool for industries right now.”

IonQ will have a broad presence at GTC including:

  • IonQ Executive Chair Peter Chapman will join NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang and other quantum industry leaders at an exclusive panel discussion, “Quantum Computing: Where We Are and Where We’re Headed,” on March 20 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. PT at the San Jose Civic. The panel will explore the current state of quantum computing, its adoption across industries, and how enterprises are leveraging quantum technologies today.
  • IonQ SVP of Product Ariel Braunstein will join engineering software company Ansys CTO Prith Banerjee in a presentation on March 18 at 2 p.m. PT, titled “Accelerating Physics Simulation with Quantum Computing.” The session will highlight how quantum computing and optimization are being integrated to advance physics-based simulations and engineering applications.
  • IonQ collaborators and partners will also highlight the results from the coordinated efforts of their work with Ansys and AstraZeneca, including a hybrid quantum proof-of-concept applicable to drug design and synthesis that utilizes the NVIDIA CUDA-Q platform on Amazon Braket, integrated directly with high-performance NVIDIA GPU-accelerated classical post-processing on AWS ParallelCluster.
