This round of financing is completed less than four months after the closing of the Pre-A round. The synchronous investment of state-level patient capital from the social security fund, industrial parties of listed companies and leading market-oriented venture capital institutions not only reflects the high recognition of the capital market for Youzheng Quantum's technical strength and commercialization prospects, but also marks that China's domestic ion trap quantum computing track is ushering in an unprecedented period of strategic opportunities.
At the critical node when the global quantum computing industry is accelerating towards practicality and large-scale deployment, Quantinuum, the global leading enterprise in ion trap quantum computing, successfully landed on NASDAQ in June 2026, becoming the first full-stack enterprise in the quantum computing field to enter the mainstream capital market via IPO. Quantinuum's latest generation Helios system has achieved 98 physical qubits and 99.921% two-qubit gate fidelity, and has taken the lead in realizing 48 logical qubits in commercial systems, with the overhead ratio of physical qubits to logical qubits reaching 2:1, marking that quantum error correction technology has entered a brand new stage.
As a leading domestic enterprise in ion trap quantum computing based on the QCCD technology route, Youzheng Quantum has always benchmarked against the world's cutting-edge level, anchored the goals of quantum advantage and quantum error correction, and continuously accelerated the breakthrough of core technologies. At the beginning of 2026, the company publicly announced that it had passed the Quantum Volume (QV) 32 benchmark test. Its ion trap quantum computing system has reached a new height in comprehensive performance including the number of qubits, gate fidelity, connectivity and circuit calculation, making the overall machine performance rank among the international advanced level. In the key field of quantum error correction that determines whether quantum computing can be truly practical, relying on its self-controlled chip design and system architecture, Youzheng Quantum is accelerating the leap from physical qubits to logical qubits, committed to narrowing the gap with the world's top level and winning strategic initiative for China in the global quantum error correction competition.
Undertaking a major special project of Anhui Province, Youzheng Quantum has independently designed and successfully fabricated an ion trap quantum computing chip whose RF quality factor has reached the world's advanced level; it has successfully built and iterated multiple sets of chip-type ion trap quantum computers, becoming the first quantum computing enterprise in China to realize cryogenic ion trapping and ion transport. At the same time, the company actively promotes collaborative R&D of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain, breaks through key technical bottlenecks, develops major products such as ultra-low vibration cryogenic thermostat systems that fill the domestic gap; and deepens scientific and technological cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative, promotes the implementation of core quantum computing products overseas, so that cutting-edge scientific and technological achievements can benefit more regions.
Youzheng Quantum Chip-Type Ion Trap
Incubated from the team of Academician Guo Guangcan of University of Science and Technology of China, Youzheng Quantum has been in official operation for three years and has grown into one of the most dynamically innovative and talent-dense quantum computing companies in China. The company has 7 professors/researchers, more than 20 doctors/postdoctors, R&D personnel accounting for more than 70% of the total staff, 80% of whom have master's or doctoral degrees, and the average age of all employees is less than 30 years old. The high-density talent echelon provides strong impetus for continuous technological breakthroughs. The company has successively won honors such as High-Tech Enterprise, Anhui Provincial Specialized, Refined and New Small and Medium-sized Enterprise, and Anhui Provincial Postdoctoral Research Workstation, and its rapid growth trajectory is obvious to all.
While consolidating its technical foundation, Youzheng Quantum continues to increase investment in infrastructure. The company added 1,500 square meters of R&D laboratories this year, providing strong support for accelerating the core technology breakthroughs and industrialization of quantum computing. After the closing of this round of financing, the funds will focus on the goals of quantum advantage and quantum error correction, be mainly used to accelerate the development of the company's QCCD technology route, continuously strengthen the full-stack capabilities from chip design, system integration to software algorithms, and promote ion trap quantum computing to move from the laboratory to broader application scenarios.
Quantum computing is the core driving force for the transformation of future computing paradigms. The QCCD ion trap route, with its advantages of ultra-high fidelity and full connectivity, is widely recognized by the industry as one of the most promising paths to realize large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computing. Youzheng Quantum will take this opportunity, adhere to long-termism, continue to deeply cultivate the QCCD technology route, occupy a core position in the global quantum computing industry wave, and contribute solid strength to the self-reliance and self-improvement of China's quantum science and technology.
