Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme Smart growth - PL - ERDF (2014PL16RFOP001), managing authority: Ministerstwo obsługujące ministra właściwego ds. rozwoju regionalnego. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Kraków (NUTS PL213); Poland. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 182,561.65; EU co-financing EUR 91,280.83 (co-financing rate 50%), as stated by the source. Runs 2019-06-17 to 2023-12-31. Source: Kohesio, EU cohesion policy projects managed by national and regional authorities (not CORDIS). Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): SA 42799(2015/X) The invention allows to increase the capabilities of quantum computers, regardless of the hardware platform in which they are realised. Thanks to its own calculation methodology on quantum computers, it is possible to exponentially increase computing power, particularly important in cloud computing. Due to the feasibility of implementation, the technology presented in this proposal can be most effectively commercialised on an international scale on the basis of IP licensing. The project assumes patent protection on the main market (USA) of methods resulting from the method developed by the founder of Beit Sp. z o.o., Wojciech Burkot, to solve complex computational problems using quantum computers. Beit, necessarily, cooperates with hardware manufacturers (DWave, Google, Rigetti, IBM), who are potential competitors in the software market (investments in QC of some of the listed players amount to billions of dollars). IP Beit protection in this situation requires rapid product patenting on the international stage, starting with the United States, where most quantum computer manufacturers as well as potential customers of the company are based. Subsequently, patent protection should be extended to China, Australia, Canada, Japan and Korea, South as countries with a real interest in the development of quantum technologies and with the necessary intellectual and financial resources to implement it. In addition, patent protection should be achieved under the EPO, with a particular focus on the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy and Spain, as the headquarters of various industries interested in benefiting from the benefits of quantum technology. This proposal concerns phase I, which is to build a patent strategy and obtain patent protection in the US.
