Alice & Bob, the new Paris based start-up raises over $3m

Alice & Bob have finally gotten together, formed a Quantum Computing start-up and completed their first fundraising round for $3.3m.

Alice & Bob announced their funding and partnership with Elaia and Breega. The company works on developing technologies which aim to build fault tolerant quantum computing. The company has been formed with a variety of academic partners and collaborators: MINES ParisTech, Inria, École normale supérieure, École normale supérieure de Lyon, CEA, Agoranov, PULSALYS, Deeptech Founders, CNRS Innovation and Bpifrance.

While other quantum journalists focus on technical breakthroughs, Regina is tracking the money flows, policy decisions, and international dynamics that will actually determine whether quantum computing changes the world or becomes an expensive academic curiosity. She's spent enough time in government meetings to know that the most important quantum developments often happen in budget committees and international trade negotiations, not just research labs.
