BOULDER, Colo. and LONDON, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Atom Computing and quantum algorithms company Phasecraft today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to explore how application-focused algorithms can be used to benchmark progress toward utility-scale quantum computers.

Through this MOU, the companies will collaborate on accelerating the delivery and adoption of quantum solutions in key application areas, such as the development of materials for batteries and photovoltaics. Through adapting Phasecraft’s advanced algorithms and software to Atom Computing’s neutral-atom quantum computing hardware, the collaboration aims to accelerate the path towards useful applications in materials science and energy.

Atom Computing continues to lead the quantum computing industry through its pioneering work in neutral-atom quantum technology. The company recently demonstrated a breakthrough in quantum error correction using toric code and announced a $100 million Letter of Intent with the U.S. Department of Commerce. Atom Computing is also deploying the world’s first commercial quantum computer with logical qubits and performing in Stage B of DARPA’s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI), where it is demonstrating its pathway to utility-scale quantum computing.

Phasecraft is the leading UK and US-based quantum algorithms company, developing advanced quantum algorithms to solve real-world problems in materials discovery, chemistry, and optimization. Its focus is on making quantum computing practical today by designing software that works with existing imperfect hardware, bridging the gap between current technology and future large-scale quantum systems.

“Unlocking the true commercial potential of quantum computing requires a tight synergy between breakthrough hardware and hardware-optimized software,” said Dr. Ben Bloom, CEO and Founder of Atom Computing. “By fine-tuning Phasecraft’s industry-leading algorithmic methods to our neutral-atom architecture, we can pave the way for a new generation of commercial applications in materials science and sustainable technology.”

“We are excited to collaborate with Atom Computing to advance quantum applications in material science,” said Prof. Ashley Montanaro, CEO and Co-Founder of Phasecraft. “Real-world quantum utility will come from combining advances in hardware with equally powerful advances in algorithms. By bringing together Atom’s scalable quantum computing platform and our hardware-adaptive algorithms, we can accelerate progress towards applications in energy storage, solar technology, and advanced materials.”

By aligning cutting-edge neutral-atom quantum computers with purpose-built quantum software, this collaboration represents a decisive step toward realizing quantum advantage in critical industries and accelerating innovation across the global energy and materials landscape.

New AI solution captures, qualifies and converts group and events sales leads — from first contact to confirmed booking.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Canary Technologies, the award-winning global leader in agentic AI for hotel and guest management, today announced the launch of the Agentic Sales Coordinator, a new solution that autonomously manages hotel sales, groups and events workflows, from first inquiry to confirmed booking. Powered by Canary AI, built specifically for hospitality, the solution drives more group and event leads and improves the quality of sales pipeline, so teams seamlessly close more business.

Hotel sales teams face a compounding problem: too many unvetted opportunities, too little time to qualify them and no reliable way to know which opportunities are worth pursuing. The result is missed leads, delayed responses and hours spent on administrative work that pulls teams away from closing deals.

The Agentic Sales Coordinator works every inquiry the moment it arrives to capture more group and event revenue from the pipeline hotels already generate.

“Hotel sales has always been a relationship business, but too much of the day gets lost to the work that surrounds it,” said Harman Singh Narula, Co-Founder and CEO of Canary Technologies. “The Agentic Sales Coordinator changes that, delivering more leads, higher-quality opportunities and the time to pursue them — a combination that closes more deals.”

The Agentic Sales Coordinator expands Canary’s suite of AI solutions for hotel operations including AI Voice, AI Contracts, AI Webchat, AI Guest Messaging and more.

Canary will unveil the Agentic Sales Coordinator at the HSMAI Commercial Strategy Conference and HITEC 2026, taking place June 15–18 in San Antonio, Texas. To learn more, visit www.canarytechnologies.com.
