Danish Quantum Community welcomes Symbion as New Partner of DQC

We are pleased to announce SYMBION as a new partner of DQC!

Symbion is Denmark’s largest business environment for innovative companies. It was founded in 1986 by three scientists who wanted to establish a framework for stronger collaboration between academia and industry and create a vibrant innovation ecosystem to support aspiring entrepreneurs.

Today, Symbion operates as a non‑profit private limited company, co‑owned by the Symbion Foundation, University of Copenhagen (KU), Copenhagen Business School (CBS), and private investors.

Optimal environment for startups and entrepreneurs

Since the beginning, Symbion has aimed to provide optimal environments for startups and entrepreneurs. Symbion not only offers attractive office and specialized laboratory facilities but also access to a wider community where startups and entrepreneurs can engage in events and have several opportunities to build their network and create new business partnerships.

Today, Symbion manages five locations in Copenhagen including one at Østerbro, one at Frederiksberg, one at Vesterbro, and two at the University of Copenhagen’s North Campus and South Campus, respectively.

Symbion’s five Copenhagen locations each specialize in different focus areas, with several dedicated to deep tech, life science, and high-tech innovation — fields that require not only specialized infrastructure but also a supportive ecosystem. By clustering companies in similar sectors, Symbion enables more targeted networking and collaboration, increasing the chances of synergy, joint ventures, and shared solutions to complex challenges.

Quantum as a new focus area

Symbion has had a strong focus on IT and Life science up to now, but with increasing investments in quantum R&D in Denmark and a growing number of quantum companies, Symbion is ready to support ecosystem growth:

As the quantum industry continues to grow in Denmark and beyond,
Symbion stands ready to support the next wave of trailblazing startups and scaleups in this space. We have already entered a collaboration with Sparrow Quantum and are excited to welcome more world-leading innovators

          Peter Torstensen, CEO of Symbion

At DQC we are excited to begin our collaboration and look forward to strengthening the Danish quantum ecosystem together
