Quantum Machines (QM), a quantum control systems supplier of Israeli origin, has acquired Delft University of Technology spinoff QHarbor. The QHarbor team will form the foundation of QM’s new Delft office, contributing to the company’s work on software-defined experimentation, data management and system-level integration for quantum computing. Financial details of the acquisition weren’t disclosed.

The office in Delft will also serve as a base for collaboration with the Dutch quantum ecosystem. “This step reflects our deep investment in Europe’s quantum future and our commitment to being an integral part of this thriving ecosystem,” says Itamar Sivan, CEO and co-founder of QM.
Quantum Machines develops hybrid quantum-classical control hardware and software used to operate quantum processors across multiple qubit technologies. By removing friction in quantum systems, as the company calls it, development cycles speed up.
