Delft’s Orange Quantum Systems raises €12M: CEO Garrelt Alberts on slashing quantum chip testing time and enabling Moore’s Law scaling
- Delft-based Orange Quantum Systems raises €12M in an oversubscribed seed round, the largest in the Netherlands' quantum computing sector.
- The round was led by Icecat Capital, with support from various funds like Cottonwood Technology Fund and QBeat Ventures.
- Orange Quantum Systems plans to use the funds to build faster test machines for quantum chips, aiming to reduce testing time from weeks to days.
- Faster testing will enable chip makers to double the number of reliable quantum bits, driving progress towards a quantum version of Moore’s Law.
- Testing quantum hardware is crucial as chips become more complex, demanding scalable, accurate, and affordable testing solutions.
- Orange Quantum Systems addresses testing challenges with OrangeQS MAX, a system designed for speed, automation, and scalability in quantum chip testing.
- The company aims to halve the test time per qubit every two years by continuously improving their testing process.
- OrangeQS MAX allows leading quantum computer manufacturers to release 30-50% of their R&D teams from test equipment duties.
- Orange Quantum Systems, founded in 2020 as a spin-off of TNO and QuTech, develops solutions for automated quantum chip testing.
- The company's products, including OrangeQS MAX and OrangeQS FLEX, enhance testing capabilities for quantum chips in various research and industry settings.
- The company envisions supporting global leaders in quantum computing with innovative test systems, preparing for a quantum-driven future.
- OrangeQS aims to provide high-throughput test solutions for the latest generation of quantum chips once error-corrected quantum computers become a reality.
