Photonic Inc
About
Photonic Inc develops distributed, fault-tolerant quantum computers using silicon 'T centre' spin qubits optically linked via telecom fiber. 150+ employees in Vancouver, US, UK. Total funding: $140M (including $100M from Microsoft, BCI, UK NSSIF).
November 2025: Advanced to DARPA QBI Stage B (up to $15M). Stage A blueprint validated utility-scale design based on optically-linked silicon spin qubits.
September 2025: Nature Photonics publication - first electrically-injected single-photon source in silicon (with Simon Fraser University). New diode nanocavity devices for electrical control over silicon color center qubits.
August 2025: Selected as Canadian Defence IDEaS semi-finalist - $1M CAD grant for quantum repeater technology supporting NORAD modernization.
Networking is native feature - qubit modules entangled via telecom-fiber links. Targeting utility-scale quantum computing by 2033.
