Biography

Prof. Dr. Marius Grundmann is co-founder and Co-CEO of SaxonQ, the Leipzig company building quantum computers that run at room temperature — no cooling, no vacuum, no shielding, compact enough to run from a standard wall socket. Founded in 2021, SaxonQ is the first and only company to have demonstrated a quantum computer live in public (Hannover Messe 2025 and 2026), with systems continuously operational at several research institutions. SaxonQ's mission: to make quantum the missing physical layer between semiconductors and AI — deployable, at last, where the value is, from data centers to vehicles to robots. Grundmann's academic background of decades of semiconductor nanotechnology research becomes the foundation for scaling NV-center diamond quantum computing from today's desktop systems toward an embeddable quantum chip
