IQM Quantum Computers will invest over €40 million to expand its Finland production facility, accelerating quantum processor development and assembly. The 8,000-square-meter site will double capacity to produce 30+ full-stack quantum computers annually by 2025. The expansion supports IQM’s roadmap for fault-tolerant quantum computing by 2030, bolstered by its recent $300M Series B funding. Enhanced cleanroom infrastructure will advance error-corrected quantum systems and scalable chip fabrication. IQM’s facility will integrate assembly lines and chip production under one roof, improving efficiency and output quality. The move aims to meet rising global demand while maintaining technological leadership in superconducting quantum computing. The project aligns with EU quantum sovereignty goals, strengthening Europe’s supply chain for chip manufacturing and quality control. It reinforces Finland’s role as a hub for quantum innovation and industrial-scale production. IQM commits to sustainability, implementing a carbon-neutral abatement system and 100% renewable district heating. The expansion balances industrial growth with environmental responsibility, supporting long-term quantum infrastructure development.

Espoo, Finland, 26th Nov. 2025 – IQM Quantum Computers today announced over €40 million investment to expand its production facility in Finland.This strategic expansion will accelerate the development, fabrication and testing of advanced quantum processing units and the assembly of quantum computers, paving the way for scalable, error-corrected quantum systems that will power the next era of computing.The expansion aligns with the company’s recent Series B fundraise of over $300 million. The facility, which will spread over 8,000 square meters, will expand the company’s cleanroom area quantum data centre. It will also double its assembly line capacity, enabling to produce over 30 full-stack quantum computers per year, helping to meet the growing demand for its systems and support research innovation and development activities.The investment in additional cleanroom equipment will enable IQM’s development roadmap to achieve fault-tolerant quantum computing by 2030 and long-term commitment to scale its critical data centre infrastructure and capacity globally.As part of its mission, IQM is taking concrete steps towards a carbon-neutral facility by installing an abatement system to tackle direct emissions from its production and moving to 100% renewable district heating.“This will be one of the world’s most advanced production facility for quantum computers combining assembly lines and chip production. This approach will enable us to scale up in critical areas which are essential to deliver quality, quantity, and stable, advanced solutions to the market,” said Pasi Kivinen, Vice President of Operations at IQM Quantum Computers. “The expansion is an important step to deliver next-generation quantum computers to serve our customers and also make a remarkable impact.”Beyond commercial scaling, this investment strengthens Finland and Europe’s quantum supply chain, ensuring that chip manufacturing and quality control, and aligns with key EU initiatives like the quantum strategy, reinforcing technological sovereignty and global competitiveness in quantum innovation.“By enhancing our fabrication capabilities to produce large-scale quantum chips for error-correction technology, we will not only better serve our customers but also reinforce our leadership in superconducting quantum computing,” said Jan Goetz, Co-CEO and Co-founder of IQM.“Our design philosophy is centered around our customers. They need solutions that are not just technically advanced but also seamlessly integrated, easily scalable, and reliable.”The 2022 Data Engineering Survey, from our friends over at Immuta, examined the changing landscape of data engineering and operations challenges, tools, and opportunities. The modern data engineering technology market is dynamic, driven by the tectonic shift from on-premise databases and BI tools to modern, cloud-based data platforms built on lakehouse architectures.Name *Email *Website ΔThe Trump Adminisration today issued an executive order launching the Genesis Mission, described as a Department of Energy-led effort to “transform American science and innovation through the power of artificial intelligence (AI), strengthening the nation’s technological leadership and global competitiveness.” The effort builds on the Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) strategy, a national network of scientific […]
