About Aeponyx
Aeponyx
Aeponyx was a Montreal-based photonic integrated circuit (PIC) company founded in 2012, acquired by Pasqal on June 3, 2025. The company spent a decade in R&D developing its PIC platform combining Silicon Nitride (SiN) and Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) technologies, raising $22 million in venture capital. Aeponyx’s PIC platform served telecom, datacom, life science, automotive, and quantum markets with applications requiring stable, precise optical control. The acquisition by Pasqal brought Aeponyx’s 27-person team and intellectual property under CEO Philippe Babin’s continued leadership, replacing delicate optical setups with chip-scale photonic circuits dramatically increasing stability of atom control and precision of individual qubit manipulation for Pasqal’s neutral-atom quantum computers. Aeponyx strengthens Pasqal’s photonic control capabilities accelerating development of fault-tolerant quantum computing systems.
