I am so happy to see eleQtron GmbH announcing their €57m Series A. Relentless focus and execution are everything in deep tech, and the team around Jan Henrik Leisse and Michael Johanning has the grit and expertise to pull this off. eleQtron are pioneering trapped-ion quantum processors with their unique MAGIC technology. By using microwaves instead of lasers to control qubits, eleQtron has created a robust and most importantly, scalable system tailored to solve real-world problems. Their €54m order book proves just that. We are proud to partner with them on their next phase of growth, as we have now led their Series A alongside a fantastic syndicate of co-investors. Congratulations to everyone involved, and a special shoutout to Jan Henrik Leisse Michael Johanning Julia Beck André Wenclawiak at eleQtron as well as my colleagues Tim Still, Patrick Lang, Martina Meier-Grom, LL.M. and Samuel Abele Ahead!
