Espoo-based quantum hardware startup Coherence Quantum has secured €2.78 million in Seed funding to develop a new approach to cryogenic infrastructure for solid-state quantum processors. The round was led by Helsinki-based Lifeline Ventures, with participation from technology entrepreneur Mårten Mickos. Lifeline Ventures partner Petteri Koponen highlighted the importance of addressing the infrastructure challenge that comes with building larger quantum computers.
Coherence Quantum’s co-founders - Aashish Sah, Suman Kundu, and Erkki Soininen - brought expertise in quantum physics from Aalto University and previously led quantum computing projects at the university. The company aims to create an integrated cryogenic signalling and control platform that enables the scaling of quantum systems while maintaining low-noise environments.
By focusing on cryogenic signal conditioning, higher-density interfaces, and integrated control, Coherence Quantum seeks to help quantum computers scale by reducing the need for additional wiring, cooling requirements, and complexity as processors grow. The startup plans to establish labs and manufacturing capabilities in Espoo, leveraging its recent funding to build prototypes and grow its team.
