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 published roadmap is one of the most aggressive in the industry: moving from analog simulation to digital, error-corrected machines with a target of 100 logical qubits (about 10,000 physical qubits) by around 2026.
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 |

| 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.
Can you buy QuEra stock?
No. QuEra Computing is private — there is no QuEra ticker or public share price. Exposure to neutral-atom quantum computing is available via Infleqtion (INFQ), the listed neutral-atom pure-play.
Is QuEra going public?
QuEra has not announced IPO plans. Its February 2025 financing of $230M+ from SoftBank Vision Fund 2 and Google gives it private runway through its 2026 logical-qubit roadmap targets.
What is QuEra's roadmap?
QuEra's published roadmap targets roughly 100 error-corrected logical qubits (about 10,000 physical qubits) by around 2026, built on the transversal-gate architecture demonstrated in the 2023 Harvard 48-logical-qubit experiment.
Who has invested in QuEra?
Investors include SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Google, Valor Equity Partners and Rakuten. Total funding is approximately $247 million.
