QuCo

Qu&Co (QuCo) was a European quantum computational software developer founded in 2017 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, by Benno Broer. The company built quantum and hybrid quantum/classical algorithms that ran on top of hardware from multiple quantum computing providers, targeting chemistry, materials science and fluid dynamics. Its Qu&Co-Flow product was positioned as the first hybrid quantum/AI multiphysics simulation software for battery and fuel-cell performance, deterioration and aerodynamics. Qu&Co ran research collaborations with Airbus, LG Electronics and Johnson & Johnson and was among the winners of the 2021 BMW Group Quantum Computing Challenge. In January 2022 it merged with French neutral-atom hardware company Pasqal; the combined entity continues as Pasqal, headquartered in Paris. Source: The Quantum Insider, Sifted and Dealroom.
