Quantum technology is likely to be as transformational in the 21st century as harnessing electricity was in the 19th. It promises to deliver revolutionary capabilities in computing, communications, and defence. Q-CTRL is building a new quantum technology industry by overcoming the fundamental challenge in the field – hardware error and instability. And as Australia’s first venture-capital-backed quantum technology company, Q-CTRL is delivering jobs and prosperity by leading a global field.

Q-CTRL’s quantum control infrastructure software for R&D professionals and quantum computing end users provides a unique capability accelerating the pathway to the first useful quantum computers. This foundational technology underpins Q-CTRL’s development of novel “Software-defined” quantum sensors for defence, intelligence, navigation, and earth observation.

Q-CTRL has assembled the world’s foremost team of expert quantum-control engineers, providing solutions to global quantum technology leaders including Universities, National Labs, and quantum technology industry partners. Q-CTRL is an inaugural member of the IBM Quantum Startup network since 2018, and recently announced a partnership with Transport for NSW - delivering its enterprise infrastructure software to transport data scientists exploring quantum computing. Q-CTRL is a World Economic Forum Global Innovator, and is a member of the Quantum Economic Development Consortium, US Geospatial Intelligence Foundation, and the Tech Council of Australia.

Q-CTRL is the recipient of Modern Manufacturing Initiative, Moon-to-Mars Supply Chain, and Next Generation Technology Fund awards. Q-CTRL was selected among the Top 10 Most Innovative Tech Companies in Australia by the Australian Financial Review, and has been featured in The Economist, Forbes, Wired, Gizmodo, and more.
