Quantum Brilliance Opens World’s First Commercial Quantum Diamond Foundry in Australia
Melbourne, Australia, November 5, 2025 – Quantum Brilliance, a global leader in mass-deployable, room-temperature diamond quantum technology, announced the official opening of the Quantum Diamond Foundry, the world’s first commercial facility dedicated to producing quantum-grade diamond at scale.
The Foundry’s mission is to unlock the potential of diamond-based quantum technologies by supplying high-performance quantum diamonds at scale, and by accelerating the design and fabrication of diamond quantum devices.
The Foundry builds on QB’s proven track record delivering quantum hardware, including room-temperature quantum accelerators deployed to supercomputing facilities in Europe, the United States, and Australia.
Significant Australian investment helped bring the Foundry to life, including from the National Reconstruction Fund and Breakthrough Victoria.
“Today is a milestone for Australia and for the global quantum community,” said Dr. Marcus Doherty CSM, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer. “By opening the world’s first commercial Quantum Diamond Foundry, we are moving quantum out of the lab and into products that can be built, shipped, and used in everyday settings. This is about reliable devices at scale, created in Australia, serving customers worldwide.”
A New Pillar for Australia’s Quantum Industry
Diamond quantum technologies make possible quantum devices that are compact, lightweight, and operational at room temperature. These characteristics support large-scale deployment, reliable performance in everyday or harsh environments, and seamless integration into existing infrastructure across computing and sensing applications.
Applications span point-of-care pathology, acceleration of neuromedicine development, assured navigation without GPS, mineral exploration, renewable-energy infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and more.
The Foundry strengthens local expertise, supports highly skilled jobs, and positions Victoria, and Australia, as leaders in diamond quantum technologies.
“We’re proud to support a company that is leading in the critical field of quantum computing and scaling globally from Australia,” said David Gall, CEO of the National Reconstruction Fund. “Quantum Brilliance is turning world-class research into exportable products via advanced manufacturing that’s happening right here in Australia. This is the kind of national capability the NRF was created to help deliver.”
“With the world’s first commercial quantum diamond foundry, Victoria isn’t just on the map – we’re leading the way and driving the next wave of global innovation,” said the Victorian Minister for Economic Growth and Jobs, Danny Pearson.
“Opening the world’s first commercial quantum diamond foundry in Melbourne is a landmark achievement for Victoria’s innovation economy. This investment will accelerate quantum breakthroughs, create highly skilled local jobs, and position our state as a global leader in advanced technology and sovereign manufacturing,” said Rod Bristow, CEO of Breakthrough Victoria.
