We started operations in 2021 and are supported by three major deeptech investment funds Quantonation, Xange and Omnes Capital.

In less than 18 months, we have built an impressive track record of awards such as the EIC accelerator thanks to our team and the technology and raised over $25M.

Qubit Pharmaceuticals works alongside biopharmas to transform the way drugs are developed by moving from approximation to prediction. Its platform allows the calculation of the absolute free binding energy of molecules with the highest accuracy.

Thanks to HPC and cloud accelerations, Qubit Pharmaceuticals can perform calculations up to a million times faster than before, allowing them to find highly valuable compounds in large libraries with better chances of success than previous methods.

We are embarking on the most brilliant minds in theory, methods, software and drug design from both sides of the Atlantic to deliver on our mission and improve people's lives.
