This contract validates a critical bottleneck in quantum hardware by funding low-noise amplifiers that drastically reduce thermal load and enhance magnetic field resilience for qubit readout. The technology directly supports the scalability of superconducting quantum processors, which is essential for advancing practical quantum computing capabilities.
Qubic Secures CA$1.5 Million ($1.08 Million USD) Canadian Federal Contract for Cryogenic Amplifiers

Qubic has secured a CA$1.5 million (US$1.08 million) contract with the Canadian federal government through the Innovative Solutions Canada (ISC) Testing Stream. The contract involves delivering nine Kinetic Inductance Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifiers (KI-TWPAs) and companion software starting in late 2026. These amplifiers offer significant advantages in thermal dissipation and magnetic field resilience compared to conventional cryogenic amplifiers, supporting multiplexed qubit readout and high-sensitivity RF sensing. This federal procurement further builds on Qubic's commercial momentum, bringing their total raised capital and non-dilutive grant funding to nearly CA$10 million.
