Pasqal
Neutral-atom · Founded 2019 · Massy, France
French neutral-atom company (Browaeys, Lahaye). 1,024-qubit Orion system. Strong European public-sector positioning (GENCI partnerships, Jülich installations). Less emphasis on logical-qubit demonstrations to date; more focus on hardware deployments at HPC centers.

Our verdict
Pasqal has shipped qubit-count and deployment targets on time. The lower-key roadmap means less to hold them to, but also less hype to discount. Their European government-and-HPC strategy is differentiated; the technical roadmap converges with QuEra and Atom Computing.
