QuEra Computing shares are not available on public exchanges. See below for listed alternatives with similar technology.
QuEra Computing is the leading US neutral-atom quantum computing company, spun out of Harvard and MIT research groups — including the lab of Mikhail Lukin, whose 2023 experiments on QuEra-class hardware produced the first demonstrations of dozens of error-corrected logical qubits.
QuEra's 256-qubit Aquila machine became the first publicly accessible neutral-atom quantum computer when it launched on Amazon Braket in 2022. Its 2025 successor, Gemini, is a NISQ/error-correction testbed running under 100 logical qubits. Its published roadmap now targets Libra — a "megaquop" fault-tolerant system with 256 logical qubits (>10,000 physical qubits) — for 2028, followed by a gigaquop-class system with 1,000+ logical qubits (>20,000 physical qubits) in 2028–29.
QuEra is private and has not announced IPO plans. In February 2025 it closed a financing of more than $230 million from SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Google, Valor Equity Partners and others, bringing total funding to roughly $247 million.
| Round | Amount | Date | Key Investors | Valuation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Growth financing | $230M+ | Feb 2025 | SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Google, Valor Equity Partners; expanded with NVentures (Nvidia) | ~$1B (est., undisclosed) |
| Early rounds | ~$17M | 2018–2022 | Rakuten, Day One Ventures, Frontiers Capital | — |
Infleqtion (INFQ) is the closest public comparable as the listed neutral-atom pure-play, and it is racing QuEra on logical-qubit count. Sector-wide exposure is available via the QTUM ETF.

What is QuEra's valuation?
QuEra has not disclosed an official valuation. Third-party trackers estimate roughly $1 billion following its $230M+ Series B (SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Google, Valor Equity Partners, later expanded with Nvidia's NVentures). Total funding is about $247 million.
Will QuEra IPO in 2026?
No QuEra IPO has been announced for 2026 or any other date — reports suggesting an official 2026 IPO are unconfirmed. The February 2025 financing gives it private runway through its 2028 Libra roadmap target, though neutral-atom rival Pasqal's 2026 SPAC listing may increase pressure to go public.
