NVision is pioneering a new generation of quantum systems designed to bring quantum computing and quantum sensing out of the lab and into the real world, transforming how diseases are understood, detected, and treated.We engineer and control the quantum properties of organic molecules, integrating molecular design and quantum hardware intoscalable products.Our POLARIS platform uses quantum-based hyperpolarization to enable real-time metabolic MRI with more than 10,000x signal enhancement, supporting non-invasive, early-stage disease detection and treatment monitoring.In 2026, we introduced PIQC (Photonic Integrated Quantum Circuits), a fundamentally new quantum computing architecture that combines molecular qubits with photonic integrated circuits to enable scalable biological modeling and next generation drug discovery.At NVision, we see these technologies converging into a new “compute and validate” paradigm, where quantum systems are used both to design therapies and to measure their biological impact. | $38M / Series B / May 13, 2026 | |

Equal1 is accelerating the introduction of useful, cost-effective quantum computers within a three-year time horizon. The company has developed a disruptive, scalable and cost-effective quantum computing technology, based on a commercially available silicon semiconductor process. Our solution uses nanometer-scale quantum dots to form qubits on astandard silicon CMOS process. Along with silicon qubits, we have integrated all functions required for a quantum processing unit (QPU) – the brain of the quantum computer – which operates at 3 kelvin with over 10 million transistors. This is the first integrated quantum processing unit of its kind. | $60M / Jan 15, 2026 | |
