BTQ Technologies to acquire neutral atom computing company QPerfect

BTQ Technologies (BTQ)has made a strategic investment of approximately EUR2M for a minority stake in Qperfect and at the same time exercised its option to acquire all outstanding securities of QPerfect, a neutral atom quantum computing company based in the European Center for Quantum Science, or CESQ, in Strasbourg, France. The closing of the acquisition is expected to occur by the end of 2025, subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions including foreign direct investment approval by French authorities and stock exchange approval. By combining BTQ’s post-quantum security for digital assets and critical infrastructure with QPerfect’s MIMIQ emulator and Quantum Logical Unit control framework, BTQ adds two key quantum products to its commercial product suite. Anchoring European research in Strasbourg alongside academic programs strengthens BTQ’s pipeline of talent, partnerships, and validations. QPerfect also maintains research and licensing agreements with institutional partners such as CRS4 in Italy and industrial partners including Quobly in France. By aligning advanced error correction and simulation with BTQ’s leadership in post-quantum cryptography, the company aims to offer an integrated pathway from secure communications to scalable quantum compute.
