Reply has the role of consortium leader and is bringing in already implemented use cases in various industries in the field of quantum-inspired optimization. Reply has developed an efficient classical solver for QUBO (quadratic unconstrained binary optimization) problems: the Reply tool "MegaQUBO" finds solutions for tens of thousands of variables within seconds. Reply's reference implementation for hybrid neural networks is also included in the benchmarking project.

Filippo Rizzante, CTO at Reply, commented: "We are very excited to bring quantum computing into practice. With this initiative, we want to bring academic discussions to the business world and show companies how they can use quantum computing commercially and the benefits they can derive from it. That is why we have developed quantum-inspired algorithms that allow us to describe and optimize complex situations, giving companies time and cost savings".

In addition to Reply, the project partners include BMW, and the two Fraunhofer institutes for Integrated Circuits IIS, and for Cognitive Systems IKS. The lighthouse project, scheduled for three years, is part of the Munich Quantum Valley of the Bavarian state government, and aims to establish expertise in quantum computing and quantum technologies in Bavaria.

Spotlight Medical Announces Successful Independent Evaluation of Its Digital Slide-Based Test for Assessing Recurrence Risk in Early Breast Cancer22.10.2026 12:18:00 CEST | Press release

An independent, blinded evaluation of 620 patients from the phase III PANTHER trial identified nearly one-quarter as Low Risk despite clinically high-risk breast cancer, with favorable ten-year outcomes. Spotlight Medical, a company developing AI-powered prognostic tests in oncology, today announced results from an independent evaluation of myStage Dx, its CE-IVDR-marked test for assessing recurrence risk in patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative early breast cancer. The study was conducted by researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden. Independent, Blinded Evaluation Using Phase III Trial Data The study used data from 620 patients enrolled in PANTHER, an international randomized phase III trial comparing dose-dense with standard chemotherapy. myStage Dxpredictions were generated blinded to clinical outcomes. Researchers at Karolinska Institutet linked the predictions to patient outcomes and independently assessed prognostic performance according to a prespecified p

Zoomtopia: Zoom lancerer nye AI-funktioner22.10.2026 12:13:00 CEST | Pressemeddelelse

Zoom vil forkorte vejen fra mødebeslutning til udført arbejde. På konferencen Zoomtopia præsenterer virksomheden Unified Context Layer – et fælles informationslag, der forbinder samtaler, dokumenter og data, så AI kan forstå sammenhængen og hjælpe med de næste skridt. Samtidig lanceres flere nye AI-produkter og -funktioner, der skal gøre det lettere at omsætte diskussioner og beslutninger til handling. Der er multimedier i denne pressemeddelelse. Se hele meddelelsen her: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261021318859/da/ I møder og samtaler træffes vigtige beslutninger, og virksomheder får værdifuld indsigt i deres kunder. En kundedialog kan begynde i et møde, fortsætte i telefonen og derefter gå over i en chat. Når informationen spredes mellem forskellige værktøjer, bliver det svært for både medarbejdere og AI-agenter at få et samlet billede af, hvad der er blevet sagt og besluttet. Resultatet er, at værdifuld tid går med at finde ud af, hvad der er blevet sagt og besluttet, og
