Venture Building
Venture Building at QAI Ventures is where high-potential patents and disruptive technologies for real-world problems meet startup execution. We create ventures from the ground up - driven by science, backed by talent and capital, and shaped by real demand from industry and research.
Who our Venture Building Program is for – and how to get started
QAI Ventures' Venture Building program supports four core groups, each with a tailored path into startup creation. If you see yourself in any of the profiles below, we’re ready to help you build.
You’re a Researcher with IP, Patent, or disruptive Technology
You’ve developed a technology, filed a patent, or published results – and now you’re wondering if it could become a startup. We help you explore the commercial potential of your research and guide the journey from lab to market. From idea validation to team-building and business model design, you’ll get capital and hands-on support at every step.
You’re a Corporate or Institution with an unsolved business challenge
You’re facing a real problem, but you don't have the inhouse team yet and there’s no startup on the market solving it. QAI Ventures works with you to turn your use case or challenge into a new venture that can drive insights and new business development for your organization. We build a team, guide development, and help you move from concept to PoC and beyond.
You’re an Entrepreneur looking for a Co-Founder
You’re a founder without a specialized team to drive your venture. We connect entrepreneurial minds with world-class researchers and validated technologies. You’ll gain access to our talent network, a structured co-building process, and ongoing venture support.
You run a stand alone venture builder or a venture building program at a corporate or VC
If you are running an existing Venture Building Program, not specifically focussed on Quantum Technologies, QAI Ventures has a variety of services that can be used to complement your existing activities. From Access to Quantum Hardware, specialized mentors, use cases across finance, energy, healthcare, security, and more. QAI Ventures has developed a proven playbook on how to launch new Ventures, but also partners with existing initiatives to provide the extra Quantum edge.
