Succesful Investment in Delft Circuits, Quantum Company in the Netherlands

DSC08314

Quantum technologies are transitioning from an academic to an industry-driven endeavour. Various corporates, governments, and large VC backed companies are heavily investing in building quantum-computing, -communication and -sensing devices. In order for the quantum industry to flourish, a mature supply chain of dedicated high-tech products is needed.

Since 2017, Delft Circuits designs and manufactures i/o (cabling) solutions for cryogenic environments to operate quantum systems. These environments have stringent space-, thermal-, and electronic requirements. Our Cri/oFlex® technology is the first technology to carefully balance these requirements and therefore is an enabler for large scale quantum systems.

So far, Delft Circuits has delivered hundreds of Cri/oFlex® cabling solutions to over fifty customers worldwide. Our revolutionary cryogenic circuit technologies have found their way into quantum-computing, -internet, -sensing, astronomy, aerospace and biological applications. By serving customers in academia, startups, national labs, global tech corporations and governmental agencies, we enable the next steps for the quantum industry and high-tech cryogenic systems. 

For our next steps in scaling and industrialization of our factory and team (>20 fte), we welcome three strong partners. This investment deal with High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), Scholt Group, and QuVest Capital, brings us the required funds, experience and network to take the next step in our development.
