Ness Ziona, Israel – Quantum Art, a developer of full-stack trapped-ion quantum computers, has successfully extended its Series A financing round to a total of $140 million. The additional $40 million, driven by strong investor demand, builds upon the initial $100 million Series A announced in December 2025, as the company progresses towards commercially viable quantum systems.
The extended funding round was led by Bedford Ridge Capital, with new investors including Hudson Bay Capital, Poalim Equity, LIP Ventures, Wolverine Global Ventures, and IDA Ventures joining the consortium. This significant investment underscores growing confidence in Quantum Art's unique "multicore" architecture, which aims to enhance computational throughput and address critical scalability challenges in quantum computing.
The capital infusion will primarily accelerate the development of Quantum Art’s flagship "Perspective" system, a 1,000-qubit multi-core quantum computer. Furthermore, the funds will support advancements in optical technologies essential for massive qubit scaling, the expansion of the company’s 2D architecture roadmap, and global business development initiatives. Dr. Tal David, CEO and co-founder of Quantum Art, stated, "This extension of our Series A reflects strong investor confidence in Quantum Art’s architecture and long-term vision for scalable commercial quantum computing."
Quantum Art, an Israeli company founded in 2022 as a spin-off from the Weizmann Institute of Science, specializes in trapped-ion technology. The company is transitioning into a commercialization phase, preparing to launch its Quantum as a Service (QaaS) offering. This platform is designed to provide scalable access to quantum hardware, bridging early-stage use-case development with customers.
Michael Reidler, Investment Partner at Bedford Ridge Capital, emphasized the strategic importance of Quantum Art's approach, noting, "Most approaches still run into scaling limitations, while Quantum Art’s architecture is designed to overcome those constraints." The company's focus on a dynamically reconfigurable multicore architecture is seen as a key differentiator in the competitive quantum hardware market.
