Founders Fights @ WORLD OF QUANTUM 25
The Founders Fight Night - the toughest startup pitching competition in the universe!
Why is the competition tough? Because no distractions will help the startups - no screen, no slides, nothing.
​
That's right - every participating startup faces an equal opponent and only one can win. Battle rap as a pitch event! Of course, the main focus is on having fun for participants and involving the audience.
​
In this interactive format, the audience is actively involved in deciding who wins the round because, as in real start-up life, only one person is ever right - the market!
​
The expert jury asks tough "Haymaker questions" in the rounds and tries to influence the market.
Get your ticket to the World of Quantum now to join the spectacular finale event
on the 24th of June and witness the crowning of:
A new
WORLD OF QUANTUM
Founders Fight Champion.
​
No pitch event engages the audience as much as the Founders Fight Night.

MEET THE CHAMPION START-UPS:
atland 3d
ATLANT 3D is a pioneering deep-tech company at the forefront of innovation, developing the world’s most advanced atomic-scale manufacturing platform.
They are revolutionizing material innovation in several industries such as semiconductor, photonics, and also biomedical. ATLANT 3D's equipment is an atomic layer deposition (ALD) tool that allows writing ALD lines, much like a 3-D printer, with only one atomic layer at a time without etching and lithography.
It is applicable to advanced packaging, catalysis, MEMs, optics, sensors, and related applications. Their DALP® technology has already empowered scientists in institutions such as the University of Vermont, NASA, ESA, ST Microelectronics, LIST and many others.
peak quantum
At Peak Quantum we develop error-protected Quantum Processing Units to finally enable reliable, industrial-scale quantum computing by solving Quantum Computing's hardest problem at its source: quantum error.

qleap
QLeap is an early-stage research initiative exploring quantum computing inspired by biology and nature. Our concept hypothesizes that quantum processes in living organisms could inform future computing systems. We are developing a theoretical framework bridging quantum physics, biology, and computing, investigating how consciousness and biological systems might operate using quantum phenomena.
Currently, QLeap focuses on conceptual design of a quantum-inspired system that could operate at room temperature using bio-mimetic principles. Early digital models and simulations visualize these ideas.
zuriq
ZuriQ is an ETH Zurich spin-off developing a utility-scale quantum computer using novel ion-trap methods. It aims to overcome some of the existing challenges in scaling quantum computers by using a unique approach involving Penning traps.
This method leverages static electromagnetic fields instead of the more conventional oscillating radio-frequency fields, which allows for natively creating 2-dimensional arrays of qubits leading to greater flexibility and scalability in managing qubits — the fundamental units of quantum information.
