ZuriQ Raises $25 . 5 Million To Scale New 2D Quantum Architecture

GDELT4 min read

28. Juli 2026, 14:11 Uhr | Nicole Wörner ZuriQ, a Swiss quantum computing company spun out of ETH Zürich, announces it has raised $25.5 million in seed funding to scale its trapped-ion quantum processors. The round builds on the company’s $4.2 million pre-seed round in 2025 and is led by Quantonation, with participation from Forward.one, Extantia, Firgun Ventures, and all previous round investors. ZuriQ will use…
