QUDORA Technologies inaugurated its headquarters in Braunschweig’s Rolleiwerke and presented one of its new developed quantum computer systems which will be put in operation starting next year and reaching 200 high-fidelity qubits through 2027. Dr. Thorsten Kornblum (Mayor of Braunschweig) and Prof. Joachim Schachtner (State Secretary, State Ministry of Science and Culture) attended the event. The new facility in the historic Rolleiwerke houses QUDORA’s growing team of over 40 employees and includes laboratories where the company’s ion trap quantum computers are developed and operated.
Knowledge Transfer and Regional Impact
“I am delighted that QUDORA Technologies now has a permanent base at the historic Rolleiwerke in Braunschweig,” said Dr. Thorsten Kornblum, Mayor of Braunschweig. “QUDORA’s impressive expertise in quantum technologies is a prime example of the innovative strength that characterises our city. The development of quantum computers is a significant step towards the next technological era. This innovative company’s establishment here demonstrates the attractiveness of our research and technology location. I am convinced that important impulses for economic development in this critical technology field will emerge from Braunschweig.”
Prof. Joachim Schachtner emphasized the strategic importance. “Quantum computers are one of the most important technologies of the 21st century. They open up completely new possibilities for solving complex problems in science, industry, and society. The state of Lower Saxony is providing broad support for Quantum Valley Lower Saxony (QVLS) to specifically promote the establishment of high-performance quantum research, for example, the QVLS High-Tech Incubator. The new headquarters of QUDORA Technologies in Braunschweig and the company’s own quantum computer setup prove the success of this strategy. Lower Saxony offers excellent conditions for cutting-edge research and its commercial application.”
“With our NFQC technology, we’re developing one of the most promising approaches in quantum computing,” said Dr. Henning Hahn, COO and Co-Founder.
QUDORA operates across locations in Braunschweig, Hannover, and Hamburg. The company participates in the QVLS-iLabs future cluster and several BMFTR-funded programs, maintaining close partnerships with universities and research institutes across Lower Saxony.
Current projects include a €12M collaboration with TU Braunschweig to integrate semiconductor electronics onto quantum processor chips and a €42M contract with the German Aerospace Center (DLR), where QUDORA is building a 50-qubit system in Hamburg together with NXP Semiconductors Germany GmbH for delivery in January 2027.
From 2026, QUDORA will offer cloud access to its quantum computing infrastructure through international partnerships, enabling organizations to use quantum processors without operating the hardware themselves.
About QUDORA Technologies
Founded in 2021, QUDORA Technologies is a leading manufacturer of trapped-ion quantum computers based in Germany. The company’s proprietary NFQC technology is considered the “gold standard” in ion trap tech enabling powerful quantum computers with 100,000s of qubits and record-high qubit control. The company’s product portfolio comprises on-prem quantum computers which can be integrated in HPC centers (available now) as well as cloud-access to existing hardware generations (coming soon). QUDORA’s systems are designed for integration with existing industrial infrastructure, making quantum computing accessible to a broader range of applications and industries.
