AkzoNobel and Microsoft Partnership

AkzoNobel and Microsoft have teamed up to explore how quantum computing can help quickly track the development of high-performance and more sustainable paints and coatings. Scientists from both sides will eventually work together to create a virtual lab. The goal will be to conduct experiments using quantum computing and other Microsoft Azure cloud services. Quantum chemical computing has the ability to simulate chemical reactions with an unprecedented level of accuracy. Together, Microsoft and AkzoNobel will explore how this can contribute to creating more advanced and sustainable products through collaborative experimentation and development.
