QDaria is a Norwegian quantum computer startup founded in early 2025 by a team of quantum computing PhDs and AI experts. It is headquartered in Oslo with a satellite office in Silicon Valley and is led by CEO Daniel 'Mo' Houshmand. The company is working toward a large-scale topological quantum computer based on Fibonacci anyons.

QDaria has partnered with Rigetti Computing to launch the Novera QPU, and it has established strategic partnerships with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and the Quantum Technology Centre at the University of Oslo. The company was recognized among the top 25 most promising startups worldwide and the top 5 in Europe, and it was invited to present at Davos Innovation Week. Its QDiana AI agent can understand problems in natural language, map them to quantum algorithms, and interpret results. QDaria expects to release TeHaA v1.0, a large language model enhanced by quantum-inspired methods that runs on the Novera QPU.
