- €50 million financing package from funds and accounts managed by BlackRock will support IQM to scale operations, accelerate product development, and strengthen its market position.
- The facility will support acceleration of IQM’s technology roadmap, fuel R&D, support entry into additional markets, and advance the brand’s leadership in quantum computing as the brand prepares for public listing.
IQM Finland Oy, a global leader in full-stack superconducting quantum computers (“IQM”, “IQM Quantum Computers” or the “Company”), today announced it has secured a €50 millionfinancing package from funds and accounts managed by BlackRock.
This facility will support acceleration of IQM’s technology roadmap, fuel R&D, support entry into additional markets, and advance the brand’s leadership in quantum computing.
This facility was secured prior to the company recent announcement of plans to become the first publicly listed European quantum computing company through a merger with Real Asset Acquisition Corp (“RAAQ”). The facility lowers the brand’s overall cost of capital and improves the flexibility and diversity of its capital base.
“The financing package comes at a pivotal time for IQM, as we build momentum for our next phase of growth,” said Jan Goetz, CEO and Co-founder of the company. “This financing further strengthens our capital structure, increasing the resources available to enable us to execute on our technology vision and expand into new markets.”
He added: “We build open and transparent quantum systems that institutions can operate directly, enabling hands-on use, long-term capability building, and full control over their quantum infrastructure. By making quantum computing accessible in this way, we are enabling ecosystems to grow, benefitting researchers, industries, and partners.”
With growing global demand for its on-premises quantum systems, IQM is well positioned to support enterprise quantum and quantum-AI adoption through a multifaceted strategy that includes hardware innovation, cloud accessibility, industry partnerships, and ecosystem development on the path toward fault-tolerant quantum computing.
