Notable Board Nominees
Debraj Banerjee from SIDBI Ventures now sits on the board of QpiAI as a nominee for the SIDBI Venture Capital. Ramesh Radhakrishnan is the first outside investor in QpiAI who also became the nominee director of Qpi Technology, the parent company of QpiAI.
The CEO and Founder of QpiAI, Dr. Nagendra Nagaraja said, “The pre-series A round of QpiAI will be remembered as a landmark funding round in Indian Deeptech. This round should allow us to lay a foundation of intelligence modelling and intelligence compute via Quantum computers and Generative AI. This funding will enable us to achieve breakthrough innovation in vertical integration of Generative AI and Quantum computing in enterprise and industrial applications. We will also be demonstrating 25 Qubit Quantum computers in our Bangalore HQ by Q4 CY2024/ Q1 CY 2025. With integration of HPC built out of our lab infra and integration all our 7 Quantum and Generative AI platforms we will have prototype of Quantum-HPC QpiAI datacenter, this can be scaled further to offer QCaaS (Quantum Compute as a Service). There is also good traction with our current customers to provide Quantum-HPC solutions with our software and compute infra. A very advanced Compute infra with Quantum capability that we will be deploying with this funding will allow us to innovate in Generative AI and Quantum software. QpiAI Quantum and AI stack, including hardware and software, will have tremendous impact on pharma, non-energy transition materials, chemicals, manufacturing, logistics and finance.”
He added, “There is also tremendous traction in the B2G segment with QpiAI thought leadership in Quantum and AI that has helped shape technology and infrastructure roadmaps. QpiAI is a Global company with its HQ in Bangalore, India and subsidiaries in US and Finland. As we work with Global enterprises and Governments including the US, Europe, Japan, the Middle East and Southeast Asia, we will be expanding our presence in these regions to create value to our customers and partners.”
Practical applications of QpiAI’s generative AI platforms
QpiAI is the leading company in the sphere of quantum computing and generative AI with handy solutions available within its software platforms. QpiAI-pro focuses on quantum computing and generative AI for intelligence modeling, optimization, and decision-making in the cross-functional area.
