LG Quantum Partners With Pasqal Drive Industrial Innovation
Pasqal and LG Electronics Form Strategic Alliance to Promote Industrial Uses.
Pasqal and LG Quantum
Today, LG Electronics, the world leader in consumer electronics and appliances, and Pasqal, Europe's top neutral atom quantum computing enterprise, announced a strategic agreement that changed the deep technical landscape. LG Electronics invested in this alliance, which advances quantum computing in industrial applications. LG Electronics invested in Pasqal again to support the alliance.
Pasqal's neutral atom quantum computing hardware and LG's industry expertise are collaborating. The key goals of this alliance are to establish both enterprises as leaders throughout the quantum value chain and promote quantum computing commercialisation. Quantum computing, which employs quantum mechanics to do complex tasks tenfold faster than traditional computers, is influencing several industries.
Investment Drives Quantum Cooperation
The new partnership focused on R&D and investment. LG Electronics' Pasqal stock stake shows its commitment to quantum computing, especially for industrial applications. This finance will focus on creating quantum algorithms for tough issues and strengthening the neutral atom quantum computing infrastructure's key technologies.
The strategic collaboration, announced on November 6, 2025, is expected to speed quantum computing product development and manufacturing. With about €140 million in financing, Pasqal builds quantum processors from ordered neutral atoms in 2D and 3D arrays at the Institut d'Optique since 2019.
Algorithms and Industrial Applications Drive Progress Two primary collaboration areas are the partnership's first focus. The first pillar is co-developing quantum algorithms to solve LG Electronics' toughest business difficulties. These studies focus on multiphysics simulation, optimisation, and material discovery in complex industrial applications.
These algorithms aim to enhance creativity, generate new efficiencies, and improve product performance and design throughout LG's businesses, from consumer electronics to manufacturing. Quantum computing could overcome intractable problems in several industries.
Neutral Atom Technology Strengthens Supply Chain The second major component of the strategic cooperation is joint research on neutral atom quantum computing technology. This includes optical and electronic modules and components utilised across the quantum computing value chain.
Pasqal's new technology traps atoms with laser light to create qubits. The neutral atom technology's ambient temperature operation is a major benefit. The cooperation will investigate enabling technologies to accelerate the industrialisation of room-temperature computing and improve the global supply chain for quantum technology. The agreement aims to accelerate quantum software and hardware industrialisation.
Future Market Leadership and Executive Vision
Both firms' management believe this collaboration will advance the field. Pasqal CEO Loïc Henriet called the alliance a "powerful convergence of quantum science and industrial expertise." He said the companies want to “bring quantum computing closer to solving real-world problems at scale and accelerate the deployment of industry-ready applications.”
Seong-Hyok Sean Kim, Senior Research Fellow (VP) at LG Electronics, said the company is “always pushing the boundaries of innovation to deliver transformative technologies.” LG is investing in Pasqal to “position ourselves at the forefront of quantum computing,” he said.
By combining LG Electronics' global industrial strength with Pasqal's neutral atom quantum technology, the two companies aspire to lead the quantum computing value chain. Strategic cooperation is expected to accelerate quantum computer industrialization and product development, enabling market-ready solutions that benefit many industries. Quantum hardware and algorithms advanced greatly with this alliance.
