Quantum Art, a developer of trapped-ion quantum computers, announced that it has added $40 million to its $100 million funding round with new and existing investors.
The company’s Series A financing has grown to $140 million in a deal led by Bedford Ridge Capital alongside new investors, Hudson Bay Capital, Poalim Equity, LIP Ventures, Wolverine Global Ventures, and IDA Ventures.
Strong investor demand drove the extension, building on Quantum Art’s $100 million Series A announced in December 2025 as the company moves toward large-scale, commercially viable quantum systems.
The new funding will be used to accelerate development of Perspective, Quantum Art’s 1,000-qubit multi-core system designed to enable commercial-scale quantum computing. The capital will also support development of advanced optical technologies required for massive qubit scaling, expansion of the company’s 2D architecture roadmap, and accelerate global business development.
“This extension of our Series A reflects strong investor confidence in Quantum Art’s architecture and long-term vision for scalable commercial quantum computing,” said Tal David, CEO of Quantum Art, in a statement. “The funding will accelerate development of our 1,000-qubit multi-core system, Perspective, and enable us to strengthen the core technologies behind our architecture while continuing to grow our global team as we move forward with commercialization.”
David and the entire team have studied physics as it relates to quantum for years, having spun out of the Weizmann Institute. Quantum Art was founded to address one of the biggest barriers in quantum computing: scaling systems without sacrificing stability or performance. The team focused on building a full-stack architecture designed to move beyond small lab systems toward commercially viable machines.
“Our continued investment in Quantum Art reflects our view that scalability remains the defining challenge in quantum computing,” said Michael Reidler, investment partner at Bedford Ridge Capital, in a statement. “Most approaches still run into scaling limitations, while Quantum Art’s architecture is designed to overcome those constraints. We believe that gives the company a meaningful advantage as the market matures.”
“Quantum Art is tackling one of the most important challenges in the field: how to scale without compromising performance,” said Etai Kramer, managing director at Poalim Equity, in a statement. “We believe their approach and pace of execution to date position the company well within Israel’s growing quantum ecosystem and the broader global market and we are happy to support the development of quantum technologies here in Israel.”
Quantum Art is entering its commercialization phase, transitioning from advanced technology development to market deployment. As part of this evolution, the company is preparing to launch its Quantum as a Service (QaaS) offering, which will serve as a central pillar of its go-to-market strategy. The QaaS platform is designed to bridge early-stage use-case development with customers to scalable access to quantum hardware, and ultimately to the commercialization of stand-alone quantum computing systems.
Through this staged model, customers can progress seamlessly from algorithm exploration and co-development, to execution on live quantum systems. In parallel, Quantum Art is expanding its global footprint, establishing a presence in key international markets and building strategic partnerships to support customer engagement, business development, and long-term growth.
Quantum Art is an Israeli company founded in 2022 as a spin-off from the Weizmann Institute of Science. To date, the company has raised over $150 million and it has 60 employees.
The team is currently generating incremental revenue; however, their next step to expand commercialization is launching cloud-based access to their systems in 2026, the company said.
