The Israeli quantum-control company said the Netherlands site will be an R&D centre at Hubbz Delft, adding to operations in Denmark, Germany and France.
QHarbor, a TU Delft spin-off, brings software for workflow orchestration, experiment management and handling large quantum data volumes, which Quantum Machines will integrate into its broader platform.
The move reflects a wider industry shift toward integrated quantum stacks combining hardware control, orchestration, calibration and data infrastructure as systems scale beyond isolated lab demonstrations.
As foreign investment pours into Delft, is Europe's world-class quantum talent now up for grabs?
Will integrating more software accelerate practical quantum advantage, or just add another layer of complexity?
With full-stack consolidation dominating quantum, who will build the industry's indispensable operating system?
Quantum Machines Acquires QHarbor and Launches Delft R&D Hub: Accelerating European Quantum Control and Data Sovereignty
Overview
Quantum Machines (QM) has expanded its European presence and technological capabilities by acquiring QHarbor, a spin-out from TU Delft’s QuTech institute, and establishing a new R&D hub in Delft. This move embeds QM within one of Europe’s leading quantum ecosystems, giving it access to specialized expertise and advanced software tools. The acquisition enhances QM’s core control platform, especially in data handling and experimentation, while the Delft hub strengthens its regional footprint. Together, these steps position QM to drive innovation in quantum computing infrastructure and actively contribute to Europe’s rapidly growing quantum sector.
