Multiverse Computing
Overview
Quantum and quantum-inspired algorithms for finance, energy, and manufacturing. Flagship product Singularity provides Excel-like interface for quantum-enhanced optimisation. Hardware-agnostic, runs on multiple quantum platforms.
Key Milestones
- 2019: Founded by CEO Enrique Lizaso Olmos
- 2022: Launched Singularity platform for financial quantum applications
- 2023: Partnerships with major banks (BBVA, Crédit Agricole, CaixaBank)
- 2024: Expanded to energy sector (Repsol partnership)
- 2025: Series A raised €25M+
Technology Approach
Multiverse Computing bridges the gap between quantum potential and business reality. Their Singularity platform provides an Excel-like interface that lets financial analysts run quantum-enhanced optimisation without needing to understand quantum computing.
The company uses both genuine quantum hardware and “quantum-inspired” classical algorithms — techniques borrowed from quantum computing that can run on regular computers and still outperform traditional methods for certain optimisation problems.
Industry Focus
- Finance: Portfolio optimisation, risk analysis, fraud detection (BBVA, Crédit Agricole, CaixaBank)
- Energy: Supply chain and grid optimisation (Repsol)
- Manufacturing: Production scheduling and logistics
Competitive Position
Strengths: Revenue-generating now (doesn’t need to wait for better quantum hardware). Strong financial industry partnerships. European base with banking relationships.
Challenges: “Quantum-inspired” label blurs the line between genuine quantum advantage and clever classical algorithms. Hardware-agnostic software companies face commoditisation risk.
