Quantum companies in Finland

Sector on Deeptech Finland

Finland's quantum sector grew out of decades of low-temperature physics research at Aalto University and VTT. IQM builds superconducting quantum computers and Bluefors supplies the dilution refrigerators much of the industry runs on; around them is a cluster of younger companies in cryogenic electronics, control software and quantum algorithms.
