    IBM Research – Yorktown Heights

    The Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, NY is the global headquarters of IBM Research, the largest industrial research organization in the world. The facility, designed by Eero Saarinen and completed in 1961, is home to over 1,500 scientists, engineers, and designers inventing what’s next in computing. Many of IBM’s most notable technical breakthroughs in quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and semiconductors have taken place here. Visitors are hosted in IBM’s premier Think Lab, which houses multiple IBM Quantum systems as well as an experimental AI-optimized cloud-native supercomputer.
