Pioneering Quantum Venture Capital Fund Sets Up European HQ in Denmark

Quantum Exponential, a leading UK-based Quantum focused venture capital fund with an impressive portfolio of early stage investments in leading quantum companies, has selected Copenhagen, Denmark as their new European HQ. 

With investments in leading companies such as Oxford Quantum Circuits, QLM, and Arqit, Quantum Exponential has its eye on the many exciting opportunities in the growing international quantum eco-system, with a particular focus on NATO countries. 

As Denmark is quickly developing into a prominent stakeholder in the global quantum ecosystem, we are truly looking forward to working closely with its quantum community. We believe that establishing a European headquarters will not only create innovative opportunities within the investment space but also help to accelerate the progress that has already been made. Our commitment extends beyond Denmark, as we see this as a European opportunity to support and invest in the broader quantum landscape in alignment with our strategic vision.

This is an exciting moment not just for Quantum Exponential, but for the entire quantum technology landscape, with governments, corporations, and financial institutions increasingly recognising the vital importance, strategic relevance, and pressing need to invest in quantum technology.

Steve Metcalfe

CEO of Quantum Exponential GroupĀ 

 

Assisted by Invest in Denmark, and driven by the strong momentum within the Danish Quantum eco-system and promising pipeline of quantum spinouts as well as strong international links, Quantum Exponential was able to quickly establish a European HQ based out of the NATO DIANA Quantum accelerator at the Bio Innovation Institute. Quantum Exponential is a very welcome addition to the quantum eco-system as they will strengthen the funding opportunities available for both Danish and wider European quantum spinouts and scale-ups.

"There is a lot of momentum happening in the quantum space right now in Denmark, and we're excited to be at the heart of it. Recent global dynamics combined with our expanded understanding of quantum make Copenhagen, NATO, Novo Nordisk's Quantum Foundry, and the Niels Bohr Institute a perfect intersection for incubating the next generation of quantum technology which will help shape verticals such as medical, smart infrastructure, defence, and navigation. We are very excited to support this next evolution in partnership with Denmark and Europe."
