This collaboration also serves to formalize the expansion of Multiverse Computing in Quebec.<\/p>\n<p>The CompactifAI compression technology developed by Multiverse Computing, inspired by the power of quantum and process simplification, makes it possible to greatly reduce the size of artificial intelligence models. The association with PINQ\u00b2 enables the Quebec institution to act as a catalyst for this emerging technology which offers multiple benefits, all within a sovereign and protected environment.<\/p>\n<p>Multiverse Computing, Europe\u2019s largest supplier of <a href=\"https:\/\/thequantuminsider.com\/?s=quantum+software&amp;id=2367594&amp;post_type=post&amp;pum_form_popup_id=2367808\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quantum software<\/a>, is active in key sectors such as energy, life sciences, finance, cybersecurity and defense. In <a href=\"https:\/\/thequantuminsider.com\/?s=Quebec&amp;id=2367594&amp;post_type=post&amp;pum_form_popup_id=2367808\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Quebec<\/a>, its local commitment is built on its access to the powerful resources of PINQ\u00b2\u2019s quantum platform, which provides a solid infrastructure upon which Quebec and Canadian companies can locally  test large-scale, next- generation AI models, compressed and adapted to their needs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thequantuminsider.com\/data\/\" onclick=\"_gs(&#039;event&#039;, &#039;DATA IN CONTENT NEW&#039;)\" class=\"responsive-image\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Website-Banner-Quantum-2.gif\" alt=\"Responsive Image\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>A greater role within a qualified ecosystem<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough this collaboration with PINQ\u00b2, we are taking a concrete step toward a lasting presence in Quebec, while also expanding the practical applications of our CompactifAI compression technology in North America,\u201d said Sam Mugel, Co-Founder and Technology Director of Multiverse Computing, as well as Manager of the company\u2019s Canadian offices. \u201cWe want to play a greater role in Canada\u2019s dynamic and collaborative AI ecosystem, which features highly qualified talent. With<br \/>PINQ2, all the ingredients for an excellent collaboration are in place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis partnership with Multiverse Computing reflects our mission, which is to enable companies of all sizes to access advanced technologies in a sovereign, sustainable, and high-performance environment\u201d, said Marie-Claude Messier, General Manager of PINQ\u00b2. \u201cThis association will have a positive impact on innovation in Quebec, in many fields, in addition to establishing eco-responsible practices in the use of AI. These aspects are important and significant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>A compressed, powerful and more eco-responsible AI<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Based on tensor networks, a formulation method for quantum systems that can analyze large, highly complex data sets, the CompactifAI solution greatly reduces the size of AI models, especially <a href=\"http:\/\/large language models\">large language models<\/a> (LLMs). For example, the new Llama 3.1 8B model, developed by IT giant <a href=\"https:\/\/thequantuminsider.com\/?s=Meta&amp;id=2367594&amp;post_type=post&amp;pum_form_popup_id=2367808\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Meta<\/a>, is an extremely versatile, multilingual LLM. With such an LLM inevitably consuming extensive computing resources, the CompactifAI solution considerably reduces its size by 80%. This lowers operating costs, in addition to cutting energy consumption by 50%. Despite the advanced compression, AI models retain their accuracy, even increasing inference speed by a factor of 1.8x.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, with regard to artificial intelligence, this new partnership between Multiverse Computing and PINQ2 brings significant benefits to Quebec and Canadian companies, including increased efficiency, the development of specialized AI models, as well as improved privacy and governance. Additionally, the compression of IA models makes them more portable, requiring less space for their installation on various devices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Supporting AI sovereignty<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The strategic partnership between PINQ2 and Multiverse Computing also reinforces the principles of AI sovereignty, specifically in commerce, industry, science, and national security, by putting the emphasis on local use. Artificial intelligence is thus treated as a national resource, ensuring a country\u2019s sovereignty by enabling it to rely more heavily on locally developed and hosted AI models or solutions. As PINQ2 is a trusted, proven and sovereign quantum platform, this offering will attract a greater number of local start-ups, companies and institutions, who can take advantage of Quebec\u2019s effervescent AI ecosystem to develop their expertise and talents, therefore developing and shaping the solutions that will mark the quantum and sovereign future of the province and Canada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Insider Brief Multiverse Computing and Quebec\u2019s quantum innovation platform PINQ\u00b2 have announced a strategic partnership to bring energy-efficient,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":225874,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3164],"tags":[943,3284,11718,89075,3358,6938,53,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-225873","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-computing","8":"tag-canada","9":"tag-computing","10":"tag-multiverse-computing","11":"tag-pinq","12":"tag-quantum-computing","13":"tag-quebec","14":"tag-technology","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114770757790398447","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225873","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=225873"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/225873\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/225874"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=225873"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=225873"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=225873"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
