With The Walter Cronkite Dragon
Traditional reporting brought to you by the most trusted dragon in the world, IQT Sunday Edition delivers a straightforward, authoritative summary of national and international mainstream media coverage of quantum technologies.
“PsiQuantum CEO on Quantum Computing Progress, Chip Space” reveals that PsiQuantum’s Chicago facility is expected to come online first, and then Brisbane. That’s really interesting, since Australians seem to think their system will be first. CEO Victor Peng also, curiously, did not answer how much more funding on top of the billions of dollars already raised is needed to finish what they’ve started.
“UK seeks to bring in more scientists by expanding research visa route” mentions that the UK government is planning to broaden visa options for quantum technology companies.
“Congress Eyes Boosting Quantum Funds as Global Race Heats Up” is paywalled but mentions bipartisan interest in the US Congress to boost federal funding for quantum computing, specifically. A proposal in the House would reportedly raise military spending on quantum to over half a billion dollars.
“SpaceX, Doximity, Trade Desk, Rigetti, Coherent, and More Stocks That Explain Today’s Market” is paywalled, but it includes Rigetti among a group of mostly winners that day.
“IonQ CEO Niccolo de Masi: Quantum growth accelerates with record demand” needs a third person at the table administering a polygraph.
And that’s the way it is, Sunday, August 9, 2026.
