River Lane Research (Riverlane) is a quantum computing software comapny, based in Cambridge, UK. Riverlane was founded in 2016[1] by Dr Steve Brierley, then a Senior Research Fellow in Applied Mathematics at the University of Cambridge.[2]

History

Riverlane raised £3.25m in seed funding in June 2019. The round was led by venture capital investors Cambridge Innovation Capital and Amadeus Capital Partners, with the participation of Cambridge Enterprise.[2] [3]

Riverlane was awarded a grant of £7.6m from the government’s Industrial Challenge Strategy Fund, to lead a consortium to develop a new operating system for quantum computers, Deltaflow.OS. The other members of the consortium are: SeeQC, Hitachi Europe, Universal Quantum, Oxford Ionics, Oxford Quantum Circuits, Arm, and the National Physical Laboratory. [4]

Products and Technology

Riverlane has a quantum operating system called Deltaflow, which orchestrates classical and quantum computing elements in the hardware to provide improved performance. It is portable across different hardware platforms and runs a quantum chemistry simulation library, called Anian, for enterprises. In August 2020, Riverlane demonstrated the first successful trials of Deltaflow with quantum hardware company Oxford Ionics. [5] [6] [7]
