Most quantum computers need cryogenic fridges and physics labs. Quantum Brilliance's diamond qubits run at room temperature – meaning quantum computing can live in datacentres, cars, and satellites.
Co-founders Dr Andrew Horsley (CEO), Dr Marcus Doherty (CSO) and Mark Luo (COO) spun the company out of ANU's world-leading diamond quantum science group in 2019. The technical bar is insane; so is the upside.
Rampersand joined the syndicate backing Quantum Brilliance's room-temperature diamond quantum chips.
Breakthrough Victoria and Main Sequence co-led; Rampersand followed on.
Closed with Main Sequence, IQT and Intervalley Ventures.
