Quantum Motion Raises $160 Million to Build Quantum Computers From ...
The round will fund utility-scale systems that cut cost and space needs by 100 times and energy use by 1,000 times, the company said.
- On Thursday, UK-based Quantum Motion announced a $160 million Series C funding round to commercialize its silicon transistor-based quantum computing architecture.
- Quantum Motion utilizes industry-standard silicon chips to create qubits, achieving a 100-fold reduction in cost and space with a 1,000-fold decrease in energy consumption versus competing approaches.
- DCVC and Kembara co-led the financing, which marks The Scaleup Europe Fund's first investment to bridge the late-stage funding gap with the United States.
- In 2025, Quantum Motion delivered a full-stack silicon-CMOS quantum computer to the National Quantum Computing Centre and advanced to QBI Stage B of the DARPA Quantum Benchmarking Initiative.
- Over the next 18 to 24 months, Quantum Motion aims to demonstrate scalability and deliver utility-scale systems for as little as $10 million to $20 million.
