QQuside
Quside is a Barcelona-based quantum technology company that designs and manufactures quantum random number generator (QRNG) chips and modules, delivering certified randomness for cybersecurity (encryption keys, post-quantum crypto) and for accelerating Monte Carlo workloads in high-performance computing. Spun out of ICFO (the Institute of Photonic Sciences) in 2017 after roughly a decade of research, it is a deeptech hardware company at Series A stage, with products (Garnet and Nellite series) that earned Spain's ENS High national security qualification in 2025 and deployments/collaborations with partners such as Thales and Equinix.
