Startup Qblox has won the title of CES2021 Innovation Award honoree for their next generation of quantum control hardware: the Cluster Series. The award is a part of CES2021, the world’s most influential tech event.
Qblox has received an important investment for developing, testing and refining their Qblox control stack and launching their technology on a broader market. The UNIIQ investment “allows for a wider product launch, contributing to an acceleration in the scaling up of quantum computing”, according to co-founder and CEO of Qblox, Niels Bultink. The Mayor of the City of Delft, Marja van Bijsterveldt, announced the great news on her visit to Qblox today.
From the 29th of April onwards, startups and scale-ups can apply for a special bridging loan called the Corona-Overbruggingslening (COL). The loans are in the range of €50,000 and €2 million and are provided by the Regionale Ontwikkelingsmaatschappijen (ROM’s).
A new Delft-based quantum computing start-up, Orange Quantum Systems, was founded last week. They aim to share their know-how in building complex quantum computing systems with research groups worldwide and aim to help them develop quantum computing technology.
