Multiverse Computing develops compressed AI models and quantum software that enables enterprises to run large language models 4x-12x faster with 50-80% lower inference costs. Using tensor network mathematics from quantum mechanics, their CompactifAI platform compresses LLMs by up to 95% with minimal precision loss, while their Singularity platform allows organizations to leverage quantum computing for optimization without specialized hardware. Serving over 100 global customers including Iberdrola, Bosch, and the Bank of Canada, they're positioned as Europe's largest quantum software company focused on practical, cost-effective AI and quantum solutions for manufacturing, finance, energy, and defense sectors.

Pasqal develops quantum processing units (QPUs) based on neutral atom technology, where individual atoms trapped by optical tweezers serve as qubits. The company integrates quantum computing into HPC and cloud environments to solve optimization, simulation, and AI workloads for enterprises. Pasqal's neutral atom approach offers coherence times an order of magnitude higher than competing architectures (superconducting qubits, ion traps) and enables flexible 2D/3D atomic arrangements that reduce computational overhead.
