Local gov issues orders to establish IBM quantum computer at AQCC
My question is this: What is happening with our IP? Why is this happening in a country that didn't come up with a single innovation in tech or science and for the size of its population only has 12-13 Nobel prizes (just a single measure of non innovation, but there are many others we can quote) and most of the 12-13 in the likes of literature... (nothing against literature, but irrelevant in tech and science)

Vijayawada: Andhra Pradesh govt has issued formal orders to establish an IBM quantum computer at the Amaravati quantum computing center (AQCC). The project is part of the development of a quantum valley in Amaravati, for which the CRDA has allocated 50 acres.
According to the order issued by IT dept secretary Katamaneni Bhaskar, AQCC will house a 133-qubit, 5,000-gate quantum computer in a 2,000 sq ft facility. The infrastructure will include secure networking, advanced cooling systems, and an uninterrupted power supply to support the high-performance machine. As part of the agreement, IBM will operate from the facility at a concessional rent of ₹30 per sq ft. In exchange, the govt will receive 365 hours of free computing time per year for four years, which will be allocated to govt institutions and for educational use.
In addition, the govt has approved a proposal to set up a smaller quantum computer at Wits University campus at a cost of ₹6 crore, in partnership with AI on the Queue, a Bengaluru-based startup. Amaravati quantum valley is planned as a govt-supported ecosystem to serve universities, research bodies, startups, and industries across multiple fields.
Chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu is giving top priority to the project with the aim to make Amaravati the country's quantum computing hub. The CM earlier announced that the quantum computing center in Amaravati will be operational by Jan 1, 2026. "The state govt is aiming to produce 100 ‘use' cases by Aug 15, 2026 and emerge as a global player in the quantum-artificial intelligence (AI) movement," he had said.
The state govt aims to generate huge employment in the state with this initiative. IT minister Nara Lokesh said bringing top players to the AQCC is the top priority and hoped that the project will gain pace with the entry of IBM.
EMEA is happening too?
Which departments are affected? Good luck to all of us.
Freeze on Canadian expats
I heard the rumor that we have put a freeze on any more Canadian expat moves? Is this true? Guyana will be f’d
Shutting down India
All, we have heard we are shutting down India within the next year or two. CVX is taking the the top performers and we will need to look elsewhere.
Country to country movements
Could anyone tell me if country-to-country movements or applications for positions in other countries are currently blocked?
What about EMEA?
INDIA - DONE
US - DONE
MEXICO - DONE
EMEA - ???
The Canadian Network that isn't an entertainment company!
Both ELT and now SLT appear focused on hiring primarily through Rogers Communications’ network of associates - aka, friends.
Simply reshaping the organizational structure will not drive real change that's needed. The company is not functioning as a truly international business, but rather as one directed by individuals whose decisions risk undermining its future while their personal connections receive disproportionate advancement.
