What stands out

Wasiq Bokhari of Pasqal tells Schwab Network that Pasqal’s quantum computing (QC) gear is already running in commercial data centers and that the company builds machines tailored to specific customer problems, not one-size-fits-all boxes. That small line matters because it shifts the story from “someday QC will be useful” to “customers are already buying bespoke QC solutions” and because naming Saudi Aramco as the biggest customer signals real industrial demand rather than academic curiosity. The interview is a useful reality check on how QC companies try to scale today.
