Dr. Mukesh Khare, CEO of Anderon, introduced the new pure-play quantum foundry that delivers the performance, reproducibility, and scale needed to build next-generation quantum systems.

 

At Quantum World Congress 2026, Khare detailed Anderon’s 300-millimeter fabrication platform, initial superconducting-qubit and quantum I/O offerings, process design kits, and the recently finalized $1 billion U.S. Department of Commerce CHIPS award, matched by an additional USD 1 billion investment from IBM.

He was joined by Rigetti Computing President and CEO Dr. Subodh Kulkarni for a discussion of why quantum hardware companies increasingly need the reproducibility, process control, speed, and scale of a dedicated foundry.
