Quantum Brilliance – Making quantum computing an everyday technology
Dr Marcus Doherty: We are a global company, we have grown from Australia and we now operate from different countries around the world.
In those operations around the world what stands out to us is the R&D Tax Incentive in Australia.

and our vision is to build quantum computers, which are the same size as today's CPUs and GPUs.
Mark Luo: Synthetic diamond is the most practical material and the only material to do that.

For example, other people's quantum computers is the size of an entire warehouse, ours can ultimately go down to the size of a lunch box.
Dr Marcus Doherty: So, it is the next paradigm of computing.
Firstly, we'll be able to do things we haven't been able to do before, such as advanced robotics, autonomy, and ability for vehicles and robots to be able to perform higher level tasks.
Another way to think about it is a dramatic increase in efficiency which is really important as the growth of AI is increasing the need for power for computing, and if we can make computers more powerful and more efficient, it's better for the planet.
Mark Luo: The R&D Tax Incentive is a very powerful and effective mechanism that encourages companies to actually develop technology, intellectual property in Australia, that one day can be commercialised.
Dr Marcus Doherty: It is globally unique and it enables us to invest more here in Australia to do our R&D.
It is enabled us to attract new people with new skills that has accelerated our ability to prototype our quantum computers, which has now led to a pilot production of our quantum computers and export internationally.
That has directly led to a growth in our business.
Mark Luo: I would say the R&D Tax Incentive application process for Australia is one of the best globally.
The other features that we found very beneficial are things like advance findings, the overseas application process, and also the post engagement process as well has been fantastic.
Dr Marcus Doherty: Quantum Brilliance competes globally based upon our research and development.
We have to be faster and better than other competing companies around the world.
The R&D Tax Incentive is our way to invest more, locally, in being able to do that R&D.
Mark Luo: The R&D Tax Incentive provides Quantum Brilliance with the confidence to translate the wonderful research that Australia has done, into real products that can substantially increase the wealth of Australia and grow our GDP by a factor of billions over the next decade.

Company profile
Company: Quantum Brilliance Pty Ltd
Sector: Manufacturing
Location: Canberra, ACT
Profile: Quantum Brilliance is a quantum computing startup that has leveraged the R&D Tax Incentive to turn research in synthetic diamond technology into industry-leading quantum computing products. Quantum computers take computing to the next level; using the properties of quantum physics to solve problems that are beyond the limits of classical computers. Typically, quantum computers fill entire rooms and consume significantly more energy. With support from the R&D Tax Incentive, Quantum Brilliance has translated research in the properties of synthetic diamond into technology that removes those requirements – creating compact, low power quantum computers that can operate anywhere a classical computer can. The company’s vision is to enable quantum capabilities in everyday computers – changing the way the world uses computers and solving problems previously unimaginable.
