BQP CEO Abhishek Chopra Honored with Venture Deal of the Year at 2025 Upstate Capital Awards

The Griffiss Institute is proud to celebrate BQP for being awarded “Venture Deal of the Year” at the 2025 Upstate Capital Association of New York Awards Night, a well-deserved recognition of their leadership in advancing quantum-enabled engineering solutions for aerospace, defense, and next-generation computing.

BQP joined the HUSTLE Cohort in 2023 with a bold mission to redefine simulation workflows through quantum-inspired approaches. Today, they continue to strengthen New York’s growing quantum and defense technology ecosystem, working alongside partners such as Air Force Research Lab (AFRL), the Department of War, IBM, Intel, Moog, and IAI North America.

Their progress reflects the impact of strong partnerships, mission-aligned innovation, and the determination required to solve some of the nation’s most complex challenges.

Please join us in congratulating the entire BQP team on this outstanding achievement. We are honored to have been part of their journey and look forward to seeing where their vision and leadership take them next.

Well done, BQP — and onward.
