- Quantum computing has a scaling problem. And solving it means tackling errors at their source. We’re backing Quint Computing, which has raised €9.1 million in Germany’s largest-ever first funding round for a quantum computing company. Founded by leading quantum physicists Prof Hartmann Michael and Prof Christopher Eichler, alongside Dr. Jona Stinner, Quint is developing a new superconducting #quantum chip architecture designed to suppress errors directly at the hardware level. The ambition is to reduce hardware complexity, error

- Singapore, here we come! 🇸🇬 Quantonation is delighted to be joining the judging panel at SLINGSHOT 2026, one of Asia’s leading deeptech startup competitions. Taking place from 27–29 October as part of SWITCH | Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology, SLINGSHOT brings together ambitious founders, investors and innovators working at the frontiers of technology. From quantum and robotics to advanced materials and next-generation healthcare, we’re looking forward to discovering the technologies and teams shaping tomorrow’s
- Congratulations to our portfolio company Qunnect, whose Qu-Mem quantum memory has been named one of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026. Quantum memories are a critical building block for the future quantum internet. By storing and synchronising entangled photons, they help overcome one of the fundamental challenges of building scalable quantum networks. Originally developed at Stony Brook University, the technology behind Qu-Mem has been transformed by Qunnect into a commercial product, bringing quantum networking another step closer to
- We spend most of our time thinking about the future but every so often, it’s worth thinking about how we present ourselves today. Quantonation has changed a lot since we started. The portfolio has grown, the science has moved forward, and ideas that once felt impossibly early are beginning to shape industries. We wanted a home that better reflected that evolution, so we fixed that. Today, we have a new look for new technologies being built by the scientists, founders and engineers we believe in. Quantum computing, sensing,
