Company register (OpenCorporates)
Not configured: the OpenCorporates source is not connected on this site, so no record is requested.
Each fact names its source and the date it was retrieved; dated figures also give the year or date the source states them for. Registers and Wikidata stay authoritative. Register entries, OpenCorporates records included, are read only for identifiers that Wikidata or GLEIF state for this organisation, never by name.

Technology families and SRIA goals
Source: the shared quantum technology taxonomy of the portal, assignments confirmed by an editor; profile stored 2 November 2026.
Related goals of the draft SRIA 2026
11 goals of the draft SRIA 2026 concern these technologies; the first 6 are listed.
- Milestone by 2030: 100 logical qubits with logical error rates around 10^-6 by 2030, matching the Commission objective of about 100 logical qubits by 2030.
- Goal by 2035: 1000 logical qubits with logical error rates around 10^-6 by 2035; the draft calls this the lower edge of broad utility rather than an end point.
- Goal 2035 goals: Photonic: manufacture photonic modules for fault tolerance and build HPC-integrated processors with more than 1000 logical qubits, circuit depth above 10^12 and a logical clock rate above 100 kHz, modular and networked.
- Milestone 2030 KPI: EU-based pilot lines cut foreign component dependency to below 20%, from about 60% of key enabling components sourced outside the EU in 2026.
- Milestone 2027 review milestone: A dependency map across computing, communication and sensing validated by at least ten European system developers with SME representation; an operational monitoring function; documented KPI baselines and first benchmarks.
- Milestone 2030 review milestone: At least 3 EU cryogenic testing providers with an aggregate of at least 100 chips a month, indicative photonic yield of at least 50%, and space and defence qualification protocols demonstrated.

Capabilities on public record
From the supplier directory: each capability with its strongest evidence. A contract, a documented product, a product line or software shows supply; an EU-funded project or a confirmed technology area shows research activity. Not an endorsement or a qualification.
