About
Quandela is a French quantum computing company founded in 2017 as a spinout from the Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (C2N) at Paris-Saclay University, headquartered in Massy, France (near Paris). The company specializes in photonic quantum computing — an approach that uses photons (particles of light) as quantum bits (qubits) rather than the superconducting circuits used by IBM and Google or the trapped ions used by IonQ and Quantinuum. Photonic qubits offer key advantages: they operate at room temperature (eliminating the need for dilution refrigerators cooling to near absolute zero), are naturally suited for quantum networking, and have a favorable noise profile for certain computation and simulation tasks.

About
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is a Hsinchu, Taiwan-headquartered pure-play semiconductor foundry — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: TSM) and Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE: 2330) at approximately $800+ billion market capitalization — operating as the world's largest contract chipmaker with 60%+ global foundry market share, manufacturing semiconductors for Apple, NVIDIA, AMD, Qualcomm, Broadcom, and 500+ other fabless chip design companies. In FY2024, TSMC generated $87.1 billion in revenue (+34% year-over-year) with AI-related chip revenue growing 3x annually, reflecting the GPU and custom AI accelerator demand from hyperscalers. In 2025, TSMC's 2-nanometer (N2) process technology entered volume production (the world's most advanced at-scale semiconductor manufacturing), while the Arizona Fab 21 Phase 1 (4nm/N4P) began production in late 2024 and the Kumamoto, Japan fab opened in 2024. CEO C.C. Wei. Founded 1987 by Morris Chang, who pioneered the pure-play foundry model that separated chip design from manufacturing.
