The testbed aims to enable startups, enterprises, and government agencies to explore practical applications of quantum-enhanced artificial intelligence. Housed at the SIN1 facility, the initiative supports Singapore’s Green 2030 and Smart Nation strategies by promoting sustainable innovation. The SIN1 data centre, known for its energy efficiency, achieves a 20% improvement through smart automation and advanced cooling systems. It also features Singapore’s first AI-powered digital twin, optimizing performance and energy use in real time.
Mayank Srivastava, CEO of BDx, stated: “Staying ahead of the curve has always been part of our DNA at BDx. Our journey, from deploying the most advanced Nvidia GPUs across the region to now integrating quantum computing into our data centre, reflects our commitment to not just keeping pace with innovation but shaping its future. Together, we are building an open platform that creates new opportunities to unlock the transformative potential of quantum computing.”
The testbed combines quantum processing units (QPUs) with traditional CPUs and GPUs, fostering breakthroughs in quantum algorithms and applications. Dr. Jie (Roger) Luo, President and CEO of Anyon Technologies, said: “A modern computer today is essentially a whole data centre. Deploying a state-of-the-art hybrid quantum computing system at BDx’s SIN1 facility marks a transformative step in modern computing infrastructure. By integrating QPUs with CPUs and GPUs, we’re enabling breakthroughs in quantum algorithms and applications. This lowers adoption barriers for enterprise customers, like financial institutions in Singapore, to onboard talent and create real, differentiating business value.”
The facility provides dedicated access for businesses and developers to prototype, scale, and commercialize next-generation solutions, accelerating the adoption of AI and quantum technologies across Southeast Asia. Srivastava added: “Operators in Asia have a critical role in building the ecosystem needed to accelerate AI adoption within the region. Singapore is a global innovation hub and an ideal environment for our AI testbed – we’re providing developers with the tools to experiment, prototype, and scale their ideas efficiently.”
BDx and Anyon plan to expand this hybrid quantum model to other key markets, including Indonesia, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, further strengthening the region’s innovation ecosystem. This initiative positions Singapore as a leader in quantum and AI technology development, supporting sustainable and scalable solutions for the future.
