Our vision is a future where quantum technologies solve some of the world’s most complex challenges — transforming how we secure information, connect systems, and expand scientific discovery.
By advancing quantum networking, sensing, and security, we build the trusted foundations that enable scalable quantum computing and resilient digital infrastructure. Our technologies protect critical data, strengthen global connectivity, and unlock new frontiers of innovation — accelerating the realization of a secure and fully quantum-enabled world.
We believe quantum technologies will redefine what is possible expanding the boundaries of what humanity can achieve. Their impact will make the world stronger, smarter, and more resilient. Our mission is to enable researchers, governments, and enterprises to fully realize the promise of the Second Quantum Revolution.
Founded in Geneva in 2001, ID Quantique (IDQ) is a global pioneer in quantum technologies with a strong international presence. In 2025, IDQ joined the IonQ family, reinforcing its position at the forefront of the rapidly advancing quantum industry.
As part of IonQ the flagship IDQ brand delivers proven quantum-safe communication and quantum detection systems trusted by enterprises, governments, and research institutions worldwide.
Together with IonQ, IDQ is developing the technologies that connect, secure, and scale quantum systems — accelerating the impact of quantum computing and helping lay the foundation for the quantum internet.
We focus on:
We believe that the ability to trust networks and communicate securely is a fundamental human right. We therefore have developed the key components of a stronger cyber security ecosystem to ensure all over the world, workers, officials, security forces but also citizens and families collaborate and exchange information safely.
In a world with a cyber security expiration date, we are leveraging quantum technologies to protect data and communications, keeping society, businesses and people safe now, and in the long-term future.
Our products and solutions provide protection against today’s cyber threats and tomorrow’s quantum computing attacks, with:
Quantum technologies are crucial to solve some of today and tomorrow’s problems, helping researchers push the boundaries of their experiments in a broad range of applications.
IDQ’s technology plays a pivotal role in creating the quantum photonic building blocks of the quantum internet, the ultra-fast and safe communication network of the future.
We provide cutting-edge, reliable, and seamlessly integrable single-photon generation and detection devices and systems, such as:
Our greatest strength is our people. ID Quantique brings together more than 150 employees worldwide, including over 70 quantum physicists and engineers, working at the forefront of one of the world’s most advanced technologies.
In a rapidly growing field with a global talent shortage, IDQ, now part of IonQ, offers even greater career opportunities across multiple locations worldwide. Our teams collaborate globally, giving employees the chance to work alongside some of the world’s leading quantum experts and an industry-leading R&D organization — while building meaningful careers wherever they are based.
