Dutch startup nets €8M for ‘quantum modem’ tech

Delft-based QphoX just raised the biggest round of a Dutch quantum startup to date. The €8mn will aid the company in its mission to develop core hardware required to allow quantum computers to communicate over an optical network — a quantum “modem,” if you will. As the quantum computing ecosystem continues to develop globally, it is becoming increasingly clear that no one company will be responsible for “the” quantum breakthrough. Rather, it will come from a combination of companies all working on solving their specific part of the puzzle.   QphoX’s technology supports quantum transduction, i.e. the process of converting quantum…
