QuantWare launched in July 2021 with the singular ambition to accelerate the usefulness of the quantum computer, while democratizing hardware and expanding the field.
QuantWare works on the quickest path to useful quantum computation, based on a foundation of world-class expertise in scaling up superconducting QPUs.
Achieving useful quantum computation is a huge challenge, and one we cannot do alone. We are a collaborative company working with the best-in-class companies and experts on complementary solutions. We are always on the lookout for new partnerships.

QuantWare is guided by thought leaders in the Quantum Computing industry
Professor Charlie Marcus is a leading researcher in the Quantum field. During his career he has been a professor at Stanford and Harvard and Director of the Microsoft Quantum Lab in Copenhagen. He was the first non-Dane to be awarded the H.C. Ørsted Gold Medal as a recognition of his outstanding contributions to physics. He is currently a Professor at the Niels Bohr Institute, where he founded the Center for Quantum Devices.
“To unlock the full potential of quantum computing, we need to democratise the technology. Large quantum processors shouldn't be exclusively operated by a few large organisations. QuantWare has a real shot at changing this situation. Their scalable design seems to me to be the most promising available, and I believe it will disrupt the Quantum Computing industry and research.”

Prof. Barends joined QuantWare as one of its first angel investors. He is an expert on superconducting qubits, and was one of the lead researchers at Google during the demonstration of beyond-classical computing. He obtained his PhD at Delft University of Technology and joined the team at UC Santa Barbara prior to merging with Google. He is currently director of the new Peter Grünberg Institute for Functional Quantum Systems at Forschungszentrum Jülich.
"Quantum computing is at the verge of going from an exploratory phase to one where addressing real-world problems could become a reality. With companies like QuantWare, we can build the ecosystem that enables the necessary research and technology development, right here in Europe."
Our mission is to accelerate the advent of the quantum computer. We are extremely motivated to solve a very hard problem and make useful quantum computation a reality.
Alessandro has a PhD in Quantum Physics and has worked on multiple breakthrough advances during his 10+ years in the field, including at the DICarlo Group at QuTech. When he is not being the technical brain behind QuantWare, he spends his time studying cosmology and repairing scientific hardware.
Matthijs has a background in Quantum Information and did his thesis on the simulation of quantum computers in the Elkouss group of QuTech. He also worked at a non-profit strategy consulting firm. When he is not working on QuantWare's five-year plan, he likes to go hiking in mountains.
Marten has an MSc in Physics and did his thesis research on topological qubits at QuTech. When he is not designing the next generation of QPUs, he goes cycling across the country or for drinks at a Belgian Beer cafe.
Stefanos has an MSc in Physics and did his thesis on Travelling Wave Parametric Amplifiers at TNO and the Steelelab in Delft. After spending a day in the cleanroom, he enjoys hanging out with his friends in a Lounge.
Sophie is pursuing an MSc in Physics as well as working part-time for a non-profit strategy consultancy. During the day she uses her creativity and strategical thinking for QuantWare's intellectual property. Outside of work she loves applying these skills in the kitchen.
After successfully completing his master thesis on microwave circuit design in the field of topological quantum computing, Daan pursued the need for cryogenic methods of signal amplification at Microsoft. Combined with two years of cleanroom experience, the design of these electronics allows his passion for physics to create the future.
Sergiy has a PhD in Theoretical Nuclear Physics and has over 10 years experience in nanofabrication of qubits, single-photon detectors and solar cells. Besides having fun with the fabrication of quantum chips, he enjoys outdoor climbing, mountaineering, trekking and trailrunning.
Petro has a PhD in Quantum Optics and has done years of research in optical and superconducting for quantum applications. In 2020 he has made wave instruments for JUICE (JUpiter Icy moons Explorer) mission! After a long day at QuantWare he rewinds by making awesome lego projects with his son.
Habib has an MSc in Physics and did his thesis at the Charged Particle Optics group of the TU Delft. During his thesis, he designed a Multi-Electron Beam Energy Analyzer. This analyzer will be used to characterize electron beams in future Multi-Beam Electron Microscopes. Outside of work he likes to visit family and friends, reading, gaming and exercising. He is an open minded person and likes to learn about different cultures and religions.
Carel has been working on micro- and nano engineering in the field of charged particle physics for over 20 years and is now applying his cleanroom skills for the assembly of QW QPUs. His hobbies and former jobs range from running a meat-trading company, paragliding, welding and driving trucks and buses to learning new languages on long motorcycle trips through the desert.
Marios is a hybrid experimentalist-theorist who enjoys playing with superconducting circuits. He became a doctor at TU Delft while trying to couple two transmon qubits together and then use them to control mechanical systems. He can’t get enough of philosophy and music in odd time signatures.
After working for years in marketing, office and event management at several companies, Andrea is now working on making things run smoothly at the office of QuantWare in a creative and enthusiastic manner. When not in the QuantWare office, she loves to travel and learn all about foreign cultures.
After finishing his master thesis on noise-protected superconducting qubits at QuTech, Roald joined Quantware to pursue his interest in quantum computing further. Besides designing and simulating quantum processors, he enjoys playing chess, go for a run or play squash
Cornelius has an MEng in Materials Science from Imperial College London and is now in Delft, pursuing an MSc in Applied Physics. He hopes to combine his interdisciplinary experiences to improve the performance of quantum devices. Optimizing his performance in the gym is also one of Cornelius’ many passions.
After completing his undergraduate degree in Applied Physics, Noud is now pursuing a master's degree in the field. He is currently developing and researching methods to improve QPU scalability. When he is not busy at QuantWare, he enjoys watching football with friends, going to a bar or playing chess/darts.
Sasha is finishing of his Master thesis on designing and implementing novel superconducting qubits beyond the transmon. By understanding what makes a good qubit, he aims to make the perfect design. Outside physics, Sasha loves to create new flavours in the kitchen and get some jumps in on the ski-slopes.
Christos has an MSc in Nanotechnology and has worked at DiCarlo group at QuTech on the fabrication and characterization of superconducting quantum processors. When he is not in the cleanroom, he enjoys playing basketball outdoors and sailing with friends.
Marios is currently finishing his MSc in Applied Physics and did his thesis on the limitations of noisy quantum devices in the Terhal group of QuTech. He is currently working on the design of application-specific algorithms for near-term superconducting QPUs. When he is not busy with his internship at QuantWare, he enjoys making music or playing the bass
Wouter has an MSc degree in Physics and graduated on impedance engineered Josephson parametric amplifiers. Before QuantWare, he was on the board of a non-profit consulting firm and taught mathematics to high-school students. Besides amplifiers, he loves to go for a run or head to the gym.

During the first 10 years of Remko's working life he gained experience in several finance related roles at large corporates. After that, he moved towards the world of tech scale ups where he was CFO of Ohpen (fintech) for six years and later on at Plotwise (logistic tech, 3 years). The major developments in the field of quantum computing also caught his attention so he is very happy to help QuantWare in the areas of Finance, Legal and whatever comes across. After work he enjoys his family or one of his favorite sports.
