Imec and Diraq run an eight-qubit silicon spin array on a 300mm CMOS line
Imec and Diraq report coherent operation and readout of an eight silicon MOS spin-qubit array designed and fabricated on imec's 300mm spin-qubit technology platform using a CMOS-compatible process. Building qubits with the same industrial tooling that makes conventional chips is a leading bet for manufacturable, scalable quantum processors, and doing it at eight qubits on a full 300mm line is a concrete step along that path. The claim arrives as a company press release without an accompanying peer-reviewed paper or fidelity/coherence figures, so the specific performance still awaits independent confirmation.

EeroQ demonstrates CMOS-controlled electron shuttling on superfluid helium
EeroQ published peer-reviewed experimental results in Physical Review Applied ("Selective shuttling of electrons on helium using a CMOS control platform") showing selective, two-dimensional transport of electrons on superfluid helium driven by a commercial silicon control architecture, the transport primitive its Wonder Lake chip stack relies on for all-to-all qubit routing. A primary, peer-reviewed source lends this more weight than a bare vendor announcement, though electron-on-helium remains an early-stage platform.

EU Chips JU and Pasqal launch a €50M neutral-atom quantum-chip pilot line
The European Union's Chips Joint Undertaking launched Q-PLANET, a €50 million ($57.2 million) European Quantum Chip Stability Pilot Line to manufacture industrial-grade components for neutral-atom quantum computing, sensing and communication platforms. Coordinated by hardware developer Pasqal, the line spans a pan-European fabrication backbone of 28 research and technology organizations. This is an infrastructure and funding commitment rather than a technical result, but the figure and consortium are concrete and the launch was reported across multiple trade outlets.
