Quantum Machines has raised $170 million in funding to speed up adoption of quantum computing and enhance its superior quantum management options.
The third spherical of funding brings the corporate’s capital raised up to now to $280 million. The funding comes as nearly all of quantum computing firms now depend on QM’s expertise to construct and scale their programs.
The oversubscribed spherical was led by PSG Fairness with participation from Intel Capital, Crimson Dot Capital Companions and present buyers. It marks one of many largest rounds of funding within the quantum business.
2024 has marked a watershed second in quantum computing, with breakthrough achievements throughout the business laying down elementary constructing blocks: Google’s Willow chip demonstrated a powerful efficiency enhancement on the {hardware} stage, a number of firms joined IBM in surpassing 1,000 qubits, and researchers, led by Google’s groundbreaking demonstration, made nice strides in quantum error correction implementation.
Amid this wave of innovation, Quantum Machines stated it’s on the forefront of enabling lots of the business’s most vital developments and can leverage this funding to assist drive the event of quantum computer systems with tens of hundreds of qubits.

“The quantum computing ecosystem has opened up and there are now hundreds of teams worldwide advancing the bleeding edge in parallel, with breakthroughs emerging at an unprecedented pace,” stated Itamar Sivan, CEO of Quantum Machines, in a press release. “Significant adoption of quantum computers is around the corner. Quantum is one of the biggest, most important technological races of our generation. It’s a no-lose game, and we are deeply honored to work with the leaders in this field, delivering the core infrastructure to make this possible.”
Quantum Machines’ hybrid management expertise allows seamless execution of a few of the most demanding computational necessities throughout all forms of quantum computer systems. This versatility has pushed its speedy adoption by a majority of quantum computing firms worldwide. Quantum Machines’ collaboration on NVIDIA DGX Quantum, combining accelerated computing with real-time quantum management, additional shortens the timeline from breakthrough to sensible quantum computer systems.
“Turning a quantum processor into a functional quantum computer is an immense technical challenge,” stated Yonatan Cohen, CTO of Quantum Machines, in a press release. “You need to precisely control the quantum system, process huge amounts of data in real time, and orchestrate complex algorithms across quantum and classical processors. Our platform uniquely integrates all these capabilities, enabling teams to rapidly go from innovations in their laboratories to deployment in data centers.”
“The quantum computing industry is reaching an inflection point,” stated Rotem Shacham, director at PSG Fairness, in a press release. “We believe that QM has established itself as the ‘go-to’ solution that leading quantum companies rely on to build and scale quantum computers. As the quantum computing market continues to grow at an accelerated pace this decade, QM’s leading market position and ability to work with multiple quantum technologies uniquely position them to expand their leadership. We are excited to lead this funding round and back QM in its next stage of growth.”
“This significant investment is a testament to the strength of our business model and growth trajectory,” stated Nir Ackerman, CFO at Quantum Machines, in a press release. “With this funding, we believe that we are well-positioned to accelerate our expansion, drive innovation, and create long-term value for our stakeholders. We are excited to build on this momentum and execute on our vision with the support of our investors.”
