QU-TEST & QU-PILOT’s mission is to facilitate clear and seamless relationships between investors and young quantum companies. We bring together European stakeholders sharing common focus and objectives, providing them with opportunities to connect and collaborate.   We are analyzing the private and public investments in quantum technologies with the aim of encouraging further discussion and investment between companies - whether they're start-ups, spin-offs or SMEs - and investors. As part of this initiative, we are introducing the main investors with a track record and motivation to further invest in quantum technologies.   PhotonVentures is another investor actively supporting quantum startups. Take a look and get to know them!   This Dutch deep tech venture capital firm, a spin-off and strategic partner of PhotonDelta, is purely focused on the key enabling technology of integrated photonics, including in the quantum computing sector. Their unique ecosystem-based funding strategy serves as a catalyst, promoting the mutual use of technological and infrastructural resources among our portfolio companies.   💡 Are you an investor interested in the quantum field and seeking visibility within our ecosystem, along with access to invaluable insights? We welcome you to reach out to us for potential cooperation. We're excited to hear from you!   Keep an eye on our LinkedIn and webpage: https://qu-pilot.eu/ and https://qu-test.eu/.

“Unlocking Europe's Quantum Potential: Why The Startup Funding Model Is Critical.” Samuel Mugel, PhD Forbes Councils Member CTO of Multiverse Computing, a global leader in developing value-driven quantum solutions for businesses. “Europe stands at a historic crossroads, with the opportunity to cement itself as a global leader in transformative quantum technology. In registering quantum technologies as critical for Europe's strategic future, the EU has already recognized their importance moving forward. It is now imperative for the Union to acknowledge the significance of the impacts of financial conditions imposed on its startups and scaleups as well.” #quantumtecnology #MultiverseComputing https://lnkd.in/drWUnwp7

Congratulations to Entropica Labs for raising US$4.7 million in their Series A funding round led by LIFTT and existing investor Wavemaker Partners! Additional investors include SEEDS Capital, the investment arm of EnterpriseSG - Southeast Asia, CerraCap Ventures, SUTD Venture Holdings and elev8.vc. Quantum computers can potentially solve problems that remain intractable for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. However, they are prone to errors which can accumulate and erode their processing speed. Entropica Labs’ software development tools allow quantum computers to identify and correct errors during computation, improving the effectiveness and reliability of information processing. With the funds, Entropica aims to expand the team in the areas of quantum error correction, software engineering and computing architectures.

"Europe stands at a historic crossroads, with the opportunity to cement itself as a global leader in transformative quantum technology.

It is now imperative for the Union to acknowledge the significance of the impacts of financial conditions imposed on its startups and scaleups as well. Prompt improvement is necessary to ensure that Europe's quantum stars remain at the forefront of global innovation. Failure to act decisively in this pivotal moment risks losing our future quantum champions and Europe's position in this vital emerging industry." https://lnkd.in/dywcepYA

Congratulations to our portfolio company, Entropica Labs, for raising US$4.7 million in Series A funding. We’re proud to have led this round, alongside Italian deep tech VC firm LIFTT. Other participating investors include SEEDS Capital, the investment arm of Enterprise Singapore; California-based CerraCap Ventures; SUTD Venture, Innovation and Entrepreneurship; and previous seed investors, elev8.vc. #Quantum computers can potentially solve problems that remain intractable for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. However, quantum computers are prone to errors, which can accumulate and erode these potential speed-ups. Drawing on years of hands-on research across multiple #quantumcomputing modalities and platforms, Entropica Labs is tackling this fundamental challenge by building software development tools that empower users to design fault-tolerant versions of quantum circuits and algorithms. “We’re always looking to invest in quantum opportunities because it’s simply a matter of time before enterprise and government use-cases become feasible. Despite massive funding raised in the industry, we can see that there is still enormous room to grow in terms of software development,” said Wavemaker Partners' Managing Partner B. Paul Santos. “We need to make sure that quantum developers and users have the tools they need to take full advantage of quantum computers, and Entropica is building those tools. By investing in Entropica, we hope to empower the next generation of quantum developers and engineers.” Tommaso Demarie #Wavemaker #EntropicaLabs #WavemakerPartners #startup #deeptech
