Quantum Science (QS) has secured another grant funding win to expand its opportunities overseas. The grant from the Department for International Trade (DfIT) will enable the QS team to visit Japan, which is one of the most important markets for sensing technologies.

The business trip will advance QS’s business’ prospects in Japan, which is one of the most important markets for sensing technologies.

The news comes months after QS won a grant from Innovate UK to boost its work developing and commercializing its patented INFIQ infrared quantum dot technology.

“It is immensely satisfying to see the value of our work recognized with further grant funding, which will help us expand our horizons into new markets,” said Dr. Hao Pang, founder and CEO of Quantum Science. “As QS continues to grow, funding like this is vital for us to continue developing our commercial opportunities.” 


QS’s INFIQ quantum dots absorb broadband infrared light to enable high performance infrared sensing and imaging at a mass market affordable price.

Earlier this year, QS announced a distribution agreement in Japan with Nishimura Chemitech (NYS), a leading Japanese semiconductor, chemicals and equipment materials distributor.
