COPENHAGEN, Nov 12 (Reuters) – Microsoft (MSFT.O) on Wednesday said it is expanding its quantum facility just outside the Danish capital Copenhagen, by building its second lab in the Nordic country and its largest quantum site globally.
Quantum computing has the potential to revolutionise industries by solving problems that are practically impossible for today’s computers. Its ability to process vast amounts of data simultaneously could unlock discoveries in medicine and chemistry and transform fields from finance to climate modelling.

The facility in Lyngby will help in the development of its Majorana 1 chip, which relies on a subatomic particle that makes it less prone to the errors that have made quantum computing not yet practical.
Based on the principles of quantum mechanics to process information with qubits, which can hold multiple states at once instead of 0 or 1 for classical bits, quantum computing can solve highly complex problems with…
