The brief

Analyst view

• Selected to lead MAQCS: €21M government-funded 1,000-qubit system for LRZ Munich.
• Raised €50M Series A (July 2024) from CATRON Holding and DeepTech & Climate Fonds.
• Develops neutral-atom quantum processors using strontium atoms in optical lattices.

Technical approach

As reported

Optical lattice

Atoms trapped in standing light waves

Strontium atoms confined at intensity minima of crossed laser beams, creating a 3D grid.

Multi-core design

Independent processing cores

Two independent 500-qubit cores reset and process in parallel, reducing latency.

HPC integration

Cloud and HPC workflows

Integrates into Munich Quantum Software Stack for cloud and HPC workflows.
