In our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbinsights.com\/research-startups-game-changers-report\" target=\"_blank\">Game Changers<\/a> report, we identified 8 categories of innovation that could have the greatest impact on how we live. Among these is next-gen computing \u2014 specifically, quantum computers and DNA data-writing technologies, which have the potential to fast-track innovation across industries.<\/p>\n<p>Quantum computers can solve real-world problems <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbinsights.com\/blog\/quantum-computing-explainer\/\" target=\"_blank\">much faster than traditional computers<\/a> \u2014 and their capacity is only increasing. Meanwhile, using synthetic DNA to store vastly more data than a typical chip has the potential to revolutionize computers\u2019 memory capacity.<\/p>\n<p>In our report, we identified 5 startups taking computing to the next level through quantum computing and DNA-based data writing. The top five next-gen computing game changers are Twist Bioscience, Rigetti Computing, Cambridge Quantum Computing, KnuEdge, and Optalysys. On the vanguard of computing research, many companies in the category are at the grant, seed, or Series A stage, with the notable exception of the later-stage DNA computer tech company Twist Bioscience.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbinsights.com\/blog\/quantum-computing-game-changers\/\">https:\/\/www.cbinsights.com\/blog\/quantum-computing-game-changers\/<\/a> --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although this was published last week; I got a request to share again for those who missed it.
