In this talk we present the recent calculation of the NLO QCD corrections to the production of four b-quarks induced by initial state quarks at the CERN LHC. We describe the details of the calculation using the GOLEM approach for the virtual corrections and MadEvent/MadDipole for the real emission part and present some results.
