NTT docomo Business has reached a basic agreement on a strategic business partnership with the Japanese subsidiary of Israeli quantum software developer Classiq. The companies will propose and sell a platform that automatically generates quantum circuits for corporate customers, with applications envisioned in materials development, drug discovery, financial risk calculations and logistics optimization. They also outlined a containerized deployment model for AI data centers.
NTT docomo Business announced on the 8th that it had reached a basic agreement on a strategic business partnership with the Japanese subsidiary of Israeli quantum software developer Classiq to accelerate corporate use of quantum computers. The partnership aims to support customer companies from developing applications through proof-of-concept projects.
The platform can automatically generate quantum circuits and supports different types of quantum computers, including superconducting, neutral-atom and photonic systems. This is intended to reduce the development burden previously associated with the detailed manual design required for such systems.
Applications are envisioned in fields including materials development, drug discovery, financial risk calculations and logistics optimization. President Kojima Katsushige (小島 克重) explained that the platform’s ability to support multiple modalities would help advance practical implementation.
On the same day, at the keynote speech of the “NTT docomo Business Forum'26” held in Tokyo, the company also outlined a policy of accelerating the development of data centers for AI. It said it plans to deploy containerized data centers nationwide using underutilized land and power infrastructure, and is currently holding discussions at approximately 20 locations across Japan.
