Wave Photonics Secures £4.5M Seed Funding for Computational Photonics Technology
Wave Photonics, a Cambridge, UK-based computational photonics design technology company, has raised £4.5M in Seed funding led by The UK Innovation & Science Seed Fund and Cambridge Enterprise Ventures, with participation from the Redstone and QAI Ventures’ Quantum Fund, Kyra Ventures, and Deep Tech Labs
The company intends to use the funds to take its technology from a research manufacturing line to a commercial foundry, with a particular focus on solutions for frontier applications such as quantum technologies and biosensing.
ProblemTechnology
"Developing photonic products is slow and expensive, which limits the adoption of integrated photonics in key areas like quantum technologies and biosensing."
Solution
"Wave Photonics has developed a computational photonics design technology that significantly reduces the time and cost of developing photonic products. This allows for faster innovation and wider adoption of integrated photonics."
