Pasqal and Aeponyx Found Canadian Center of Competency at C2MI to Commercialize Photonic Integrated Circuit Packaging

Industrial neutral-atom quantum hardware manufacturer Pasqal, acting through its newly integrated Canadian subsidiary Aeponyx, has announced the creation of a specialized Center of Competency in Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) Packaging for quantum and advanced sensing applications. Headquartered at the MiQro Innovation Collaborative Center (C2MI) in Bromont, Quebec, the cross-border ecosystem consolidates advanced packaging operations alongside Canadian technology partners HOP Technologies and Phantom Photonics. Supported by a combined $4 million federal and provincial financing package—including a $3 million allocation from Next Generation Manufacturing Canada (NGen)—the $7.9 million initiative is engineered to establish an on-shore low-volume assembly line, standardizing critical hardware packaging parameters to alleviate severe physical bottle-necks currently restricting the production of laser-based multi-qubit control components.
