SHANGHAI, Nov. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Trip.com Group, in collaboration with the Xinjiang Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, debuted the “Kiss Xinjiang” project at the 2024 China International Travel Mart. This was held at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre in Shanghai from 22 – 24 November 2024. This landmark initiative brought Xinjiang’s rich cultural and tourism offerings to global audiences, highlighting its unique charm and year-round appeal.

Representing 12 regions, three hotels, and 15 scenic spots alongside 37 cultural and tourism enterprises and 12 travel agencies, the Xinjiang delegation presented a diverse range of attractions and displayed as many as 379 cultural and agricultural products. Iconic sites such as the Hami Yadan Scenic Area, Bosten Lake, Tianchi International Ski Resort, and Turpan’s Grape Valley were featured through innovative exhibits, cultural promotions, and immersive displays.

A Collaborative Vision: Showcasing Xinjiang’s Beauty

The “Kiss Xinjiang” project highlights the strong partnership between Trip.com Group and the Xinjiang Department of Culture and Tourism, leveraging shared resources and expertise to elevate Xinjiang’s tourism appeal. The 163-square-meter Xinjiang exhibition area is themed around the iconic China National Highway 219 (G219) and the “Duku Road,” which traverses the Tianshan Mountains.

The exhibit features a multidimensional showcase of Xinjiang’s cultural and creative products, agricultural and handicraft offerings, ice and snow tourism resources, authentic Xinjiang cuisine, smart tourism platforms, and inbound travel routes. Through five key aspects—Innovative Xinjiang, Ice and Snow Xinjiang, Taste of Xinjiang, Digital Xinjiang, and Inbound Xinjiang—the exhibit offers a comprehensive presentation of Xinjiang’s attractions, blending tradition with modern innovation to strengthen its international tourism brand.

Vibrant ethnic dances and engaging installations further enriched the exhibition experience, attracting significant attention from domestic and international audiences.

“Next year, our family plans to drive the North Xinjiang Grand Loop. Today, we happened to make a lot of travel plans on the spot. Xinjiang is really attractive, and we can’t wait to set off!” said Mr. Wang, a Shanghai resident.

An Invitation to Explore Xinjiang’s Four Seasons

Tourism representatives from cities such as Urumqi, Altay, Kashgar, and Hotan highlighted Xinjiang’s year-round offerings, including winter activities like skiing, snow appreciation, and wellness tourism. From the snowy peaks of Altay to the vibrant deserts of Turpan, the presentations invited travellers to embark on a poetic journey through Xinjiang’s stunning landscapes, rich history, and unique cultures.

The project’s global appeal was amplified by the participation of international influencers (KOLs and KOCs). The collaboration between Trip.com Group and the Xinjiang Department of Culture and Tourism aligns with China’s “Tourism Revitalises Xinjiang” strategy, fostering high-quality development through cultural and tourism exchanges.

By

GRENOBLE, France, June 3, 2026 /CNW/ — Quobly, a French quantum computing company, today announced the closing of a €115 million Series A financing to accelerate the industrialization of its silicon-based quantum computers and bring its first commercial product to market by the end of 2026.

The round is led by Bpifrance, SEALSQ and STMicroelectronics, with participation from the European Innovation Council (EIC Fund), Blast, ALIAD (Air Liquide Venture Capital) and existing investor Innovacom, bringing together leading industrial, sovereign and deeptech investors. Existing shareholders also include the CEA, CNRS, Quantonation and Supernova Invest. 
Long-time investor Bpifrance is participating through the Deep Tech 2030 fund, managed on behalf of the French government as part of the France 2030 initiative.This financing will support continued R&D, industrialization efforts and international commercial expansion.Quobly, bringing semiconductor-grade manufacturing and industrialization to quantum computing, plans to deploy its first commercial quantum computer through the cloud by the end of 2026 under its Alloy product line.

From technology validation to commercial deployment at scale

This Series A marks a key step in Quobly’s roadmap to industrial-scale quantum computing, transitioning from early validation to the production of its first commercial systems.

Alloy Pioneer, the first computer in Quobly’s Alloy product line, is designed for early adopters in high-performance computing and research environments. The system will be accessible through the cloud in 2026, before deployment within HPC infrastructures in 2027.

Quobly’s quantum computers are designed to integrate into existing HPC and data-center infrastructures, with a compatible footprint, power supply and utility requirements, enabling straightforward deployment. 
Alloy Pioneer is accessible through Alloy Forge, Quobly’s quantum application development environment, enabling users to develop and validate applications under realistic hardware constraints.

The company will in particular:

Increase the performance and scalability of its quantum computer product line,Accelerate the industrialization and scaling of its silicon quantum processors,Deploy its first Alloy systems into customer cloud and HPC environments.

These efforts will be supported by the continued expansion of Quobly’s hardware, control electronics and software stack, in line with its system-level co-design approach.

This Series A follows Quobly’s €19 million seed phase (2023-2025), during which the company demonstrated the feasibility of developing silicon qubits within semiconductor manufacturing processes, and established a system-level architecture integrating device, control and software layers.

Scaling quantum computing through semiconductor manufacturing

Quobly’s approach is based on the use of FD-SOI technology on 300 mm wafers, leveraging established semiconductor manufacturing processes to address key challenges in scalability, yield and reproducibility. The company develops silicon qubits designed for dense integration and compatibility with industrial fabrication standards.

As part of this strategy, Quobly leverages semiconductor-grade capabilities across the broader semiconductor ecosystem through strategic partnerships with industrial leaders including STMicroelectronics, Air Liquide, Soitec and Orano. These collaborations accelerate the transfer of Quobly’s quantum technologies into advanced manufacturing environments and support the industrial integration of process control, materials engineering, cryogenics and yield optimization from the earliest stages of deployment.

This industrial-first approach sets Quobly apart by prioritizing manufacturability and technology-system co-development.

Executive commentary

Maud Vinet, CEO and co-founder, Quobly
