Hi,

I'm Khrystian (@kkoci), registered for this challenge several weeks ago through the pqic.org form but I haven't received any onboarding email — not even in spam. A few questions:

Is the Phase 1 deadline of April 5 still confirmed?
Will IBM Quantum flex credits be available to participants this year as in 2025?
Is there an onboarding email that should have gone out? I want to make sure my registration is properly active.

Thanks

Hi Khrystian - thank you for your question, and it's great to see you're competing again!

You should have recieved an email from contact@qbraid.com with the next steps. Apologies that you did not. You are registered and have an Aqora account, so the next stage is to either form or join a team (if you have not already) or submit a solo solution to one or several Challenges. IBM is giving credits again this year yes. We also announced new platform providers D-Wave and Quantum Computing Inc. The deadline is set for April 5 for Phase 1, and participants can submit and resubmit up until the deadline.

Good luck competing!

Thanks Kieran! Really good to know on the credits and deadline.

I've checked both inbox and spam and the qBraid email never arrived. Could you flag it to the qBraid team to resend to kristian.koci@feeltech.co.uk?

Thanks

UPDATE

There was a typo on my email address. Now it's correct -> kristian.koci@feeltech.co.uk
