Stuttgart & London - Bosch Ventures, the corporate venture capital company of the Bosch Group, is participating in Quantum Motion's USD 160 million Series C financing round. The round is co-led by DCVC and Kembara, with participation from the British Business Bank, Firgun, and existing investors. This investment underscores the growing importance of scalable, energy-efficient quantum computing as a foundational technology for the future of digital infrastructure.

Pioneering silicon-based quantum computing for scalable impact

Quantum Motion is developing a novel quantum computing architecture based on industry-standard silicon transistors - the same technology underpinning today's global semiconductor ecosystem. This approach enables a transformative leap toward utility-scale quantum systems, delivering up to a 100-fold reduction in cost and physical footprint, and up to a 1,000-fold reduction in energy consumption compared to alternative quantum technologies according to Quantum Motion. Designed to operate within standard data center environments, Quantum Motion's systems eliminate the need for specialized infrastructure and significantly reduce the energy demands typically associated with quantum computing. This represents a critical step toward addressing one of the most pressing challenges of our time: the rapidly increasing energy consumption of next-generation computing, including AI and quantum workloads.

"In Quantum Motion, we see a pioneering approach to making quantum computing truly scalable and energy-efficient," said Dr. Ingo Ramesohl, Managing Director at Bosch Ventures. "By leveraging silicon, the team is bringing quantum computing onto a path that is both technologically compelling and economically sustainable. We are excited to support Quantum Motion as a reliable partner in advancing this next-generation technology toward real-world, industrial applications."

"Bosch Ventures has been a strong partner to Quantum Motion since leading our previous round, bringing not only strong technical understanding but also experience in scaling deep-tech startups," said James Palles-Dimmock, CEO and co-founder of Quantum Motion. "Their continued support, alongside this outstanding group of investors, reinforces our shared belief that silicon-based quantum computing is the most scalable and energy-efficient path forward. Together, we are accelerating the transition of quantum computing from the lab to real-world, impactful deployment."

This investment highlights Bosch's strong momentum in the global startup ecosystem. Last week, Bosch announced the expansion of Bosch Business Innovations to spin out new ventures. While Bosch Ventures invests in and partners with external startups to scale cutting-edge technologies, Bosch Business Innovations focuses on creating new businesses from within, together reinforcing Bosch's commitment to driving innovation from multiple angles.
