NVision Wins €293K EuroHPC Grant for Spin-Qubit Roadmap

NVision Quantum Technologies has come up as one of 13 companies to participate in the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking’s Quantum Grand Challenge. The company received €293,455 to fund a four-month project, focusing on developing a scaling roadmap for its spin-qubit architecture. This award specifically supports a planning exercise, not the development of new hardware.

Award Details

The project, named QOSMOS, will span four months and culminate in a technical and financial roadmap for NVision’s PIQC design. PIQC, or photon-interfaced quantum computing, is a spin-qubit approach where NVision intends to connect qubits using photonic integrated circuits. The project’s objectives include benchmarking current technology, defining hardware and software milestones, and identifying initial applications. NVision has indicated that quantum simulation for chemistry and pharmaceutical research will be its initial focus.

The grant amount is relatively modest. The EuroHPC Governing Board approved the chosen projects on June 19, 2026, under Decision No. 31/2026, following an independent evaluation. Out of thirty submitted proposals, thirteen ended up on the main list for funding, with an additional three joining a reserve list. NVision is one of three German companies on the list and the only one working on spin qubits.

This funding represents Phase 1 of the program, which EuroHPC describes as providing roadmap support. Following this phase, the most promising projects will have the opportunity to apply for long-term venture debt from the European Investment Bank. The grant agreement is still in preparation.

NVision’s Claims

NVision connects its spin-qubit research to its existing work in quantum-enhanced MRI, where it is developing a metabolic imaging platform. The PIQC architecture, however, is a separate and earlier-stage endeavor. The company positions photonic connectivity as its key strategy for scaling.

Dr. Sella Brosh, CEO and Co-Founder, emphasized that this selection represents a step forward, not a final achievement.

“As we see it today, photonic connectivity is the only viable path to scaling quantum computers to the size required for fault-tolerant operation. That is why we built connectivity into our architecture from the outset, rather than treating it as a problem to solve later.”

This statement highlights a design choice, and the phrase “only viable path” reflects the company’s perspective. Targets such as fault tolerance, all-to-all connectivity at scale, and integration with European high-performance computing are outlined in the roadmap but are not yet demonstrated results. The tangible output of this award is a comprehensive document.
