Founded in 2025 as a University of Glasgow spin-out, Quantcore designs, manufactures, and tests superconducting quantum processors, resonators, and sensors that serve as the backbone of quantum computers and advanced sensing platforms. Its proprietary use of niobium allows components to operate at higher temperatures than the aluminium devices favored by global competitors, reducing energy consumption and improving scalability. The company’s quantum sensors also enable secure communications and high-precision medical imaging with applications ranging from neuroscience to early disease detection. Quantcore targets customers such as UK national laboratories that demand secure, high-performance quantum hardware. With the UK government committing £670 million to quantum technologies, Quantcore positions itself as a key domestic supplier, arguing that sovereign capability is critical as classical computing nears its limits. Proceeds from the latest funding will be used to hire engineers in design, manufacturing, and cryogenic testing, alongside commercial staff, to accelerate product development and market outreach.
