IQM Quantum Computers was founded in 2018 in Espoo, Finland by a team of researchers including Jan Goetz and Mikko Möttönen, spinning out of quantum computing research conducted at Aalto University and Finland's VTT Technical Research Centre, positioning itself as a European quantum computing hardware company at a time when the quantum computing hardware industry has been dominated primarily by American and, to a lesser degree, Chinese companies and research institutions, with relatively few well-funded European quantum hardware companies pursuing the technology at comparable scale. IQM builds quantum computers using superconducting qubit technology, the same fundamental technical approach used by major quantum computing efforts at companies including Google and IBM, in which quantum bits, the basic unit of quantum information, are implemented using superconducting electronic circuits cooled to extremely low temperatures near absolute zero, an approach that has emerged as one of the prominent hardware technologies for building quantum computers, alongside alternative approaches such as trapped-ion and photonic quantum computing pursued by other companies. The company has pursued a dual go-to-market strategy, selling complete, on-premises quantum computers directly to research institutions, universities, and national research labs that want to operate their own dedicated quantum computing hardware for research purposes, while also developing quantum processors and technology aimed at more direct industrial and commercial applications as quantum computing technology continues to mature toward practical, real-world use cases beyond primarily academic and government research. IQM has positioned itself as contributing to European strategic autonomy and technological sovereignty in quantum computing, an area of growing strategic interest to European governments given the technology's long-term implications for cryptography, materials science, and other fields. The company has raised substantial venture funding from investors including Tesi, MIG Capital, and World Fund, reaching a valuation exceeding $1 billion, one of the most prominent quantum computing hardware companies based in Europe.
