About

SaxonQ is a spin-off from the University of Leipzig that develops diamond-based quantum computers with programmable qubit systems operating at room temperature. Founded by professors Marius Grundmann and Jan Meijer of Leipzig University's Felix-Bloch-Institut fuer Festkoerperphysik, the company builds NV-center quantum computers and has delivered systems to DLR's Ulm Innovation Center as part of Project SuNQC. Because the technology needs no cryogenic cooling, the computers can be deployed in any environment. SaxonQ operates Saxony's first mobile quantum computer at Fraunhofer IWU and works to make diamond-based quantum computing commercially viable. In April 2025, the company demonstrated the world's first mobile quantum computer running real-time applications at Hannover Messe 2025, including live image recognition and quantum chemistry calculations at room temperature, a landmark in industrial and mobile quantum computing. The Hannover demonstration ran on a dual-core design with two NV-center processor cores. In November 2025, the technology investor TGFS Technologiegruenderfonds Sachsen took a stake in the company.
