AndesQubit is a quantum computing consultancy founded in Medellín, Colombia, in 2026. We work with companies in Latin America and the United States, in Spanish and in English.
What we believe
Quantum computing will matter a great deal, and most of what is said about it today is either too early or too loud. Both can be true at once.
The hardware is improving fast. Google showed error correction working below threshold on its Willow chip in December 2024. IBM has a public roadmap to a fault-tolerant machine, Starling, by 2029. Quantinuum launched Helios in November 2025 with 48 error-corrected logical qubits. None of this means a quantum computer will run your supply chain next year. It does mean the companies that understand the technology early will make better decisions when it matures.
One part of the story doesn’t wait. A large enough quantum computer will break the public-key encryption most systems rely on, and data stolen today can be decrypted then. That is why NIST published post-quantum standards in 2024 and why governments have set migration deadlines. For most companies, this is where quantum work should start.
Why Latin America
Most quantum material, and most quantum consultancies, are built for buyers in the US, Europe and Asia. Latin American companies get translated brochures and sales calls across six time zones.
The region has real quantum work going on: Colombia’s first teaching quantum computer at Universidad de los Andes, a national ion-trap processor project at Universidad del Valle, Chile’s national strategy for quantum technologies from 2025 to 2035, and Brazil’s investment in its first operational machines. What is missing are people who connect that science to the needs of banks, insurers, utilities, mines, ports and farms. That gap is where we want to work.
How we work
- We tell you what quantum can’t do for you, not only what it can.
- We separate work that pays off now (post-quantum security, readiness, training) from work that depends on future hardware.
- We use public, verifiable sources and cite them.
- We write in Spanish from the start, not as an afterthought.
Who writes this site
Every page is written and reviewed by AndesQubit Research, the company’s editorial team. We follow four rules:
- Primary sources first. Claims about standards, deadlines, hardware and research link to NIST, government agencies, regulators, peer-reviewed papers or the company that made the announcement.
- Dated reviews. Each service, industry and article page shows when it was last reviewed. Pages that track fast-moving topics, like migration deadlines and Latin American programs, are reviewed every quarter.
- Balance. When a result is disputed, we name the critics alongside the claim.
- Corrections. If you find an error, write to hello@andesqubit.com. We fix it and note the change on the page.
Where we are today
AndesQubit is new. We are opening our first engagements in stages, and we would rather say that plainly than dress it up. If you want to be among the first companies we work with, join the early-access list.
