Overview

Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC) builds superconducting quantum computers and pioneered quantum-compute-as-a-service (QCaaS). Founded in 2017 by Dr Peter Leek, OQC deploys quantum systems in colocation data centres across London, Tokyo, New York, and Spain, partnering with Equinix, Digital Realty, and NVIDIA. The company raised 260 million GBP (350 million USD) in Series C funding (June 2026), Europe's largest private quantum computing round, led by Bullhound Capital with participation from JPMorgan Chase, AMD, and the British Business Bank. OQC's 32-qubit Toshiko platform and next-generation GENESIS system integrate quantum processing with classical HPC for enterprise and government customers in finance, defence, and security.
