Korean Quantum Computing Firm Norma Achieves 73‑fold Speedup of Quantum AI Drug‑Discovery on NVIDIA CUDA‑Q
Hyunchul Jung’s Norma shows quantum AI algorithms run up to 73× faster on NVIDIA CUDA‑Q for drug development, validated on 1 Sep 2025.
Norma’s validation showed that CUDA‑Q not only boosts computational throughput but also enables realistic verification of algorithms before deployment on physical quantum hardware, cutting development costs and time. CEO Hyunchul Jung highlighted the partnership as a model for collaboration between domestic and international quantum‑technology companies and medical institutions, and announced plans to extend performance testing of quantum AI algorithms to defence and finance sectors. Norma’s work shows that the cost and time barriers traditionally associated with quantum‑classical development can be substantially lowered, providing a concrete data set that supports broader adoption of quantum hardware beyond the pharmaceutical arena.
