Germany's federal government has awarded a €122 million grant to a QUDORA-led consortium to develop a trapped-ion quantum computer featuring at least 1,000 physical qubits. This initiative is a key component of the High-Tech Agenda Deutschland, aiming to establish fault-tolerant systems by 2030 and solidify Europe's position in quantum computing competitiveness. The project includes plans for a pilot production line, marking a significant step toward scaling high-performance ion-trap processors.
German Government Selects QUDORA-Led Consortium For €122 Million Project

Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — QUDORA will lead a seven-member consortium of research institutions and industry partners in a bid to build one of Europe’s most advanced quantum computers. The project, named NFQC-1k, is being selected under the Quantum Computing Competition of Germany’s Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR), with a total volume […]
QUDORA will lead a seven-member German consortium seeking to develop a trapped-ion quantum computer with at least 1,000 physical qubits and 50 logical qubits under the NFQC-1k project. The project has an estimated €122 million total volume over up to five years and is part of Germany’s effort to establish at least two fault-tolerant quantum computers by 2030. The consortium, which includes research institutions, NXP Semiconductors and Alpine Quantum Technologies’ German unit, also plans to establish a…
