About Universal Quantum
Universal Quantum is a UK company building trapped-ion quantum computers, in which charged atoms held in electromagnetic traps act as qubits, the basic units of quantum information. It describes its design as modular, meaning a larger machine is assembled from smaller connected units rather than built as one block. The company says its aim is utility-scale machines, meaning ones large enough to solve useful problems. Its headquarters, founding year and contracts could not be confirmed from the sources reachable for this review.
Universal Quantum was founded in 2018 and is based in Brighton, UK, United Kingdom. It is listed under Quantum Computing. Reported funding is €67M+ DLR contract.

What Universal Quantum works on
Quantum Computing
A quantum computer is a machine that uses the rules of quantum physics to process information. Its basic unit is the qubit. A classical bit is either 0 or 1. A qubit can be in a superposition, a state that combines both, and its measured result is probabilistic.
