Advertise and sponsor
DesignQuantum is written for the brightest minds in quantum technology: the researchers, engineers, founders, investors, executives and policymakers who build, fund and buy it. Every day we publish sourced news and in-depth explainers on quantum computing, networking, sensing and post-quantum security, alongside a directory of the companies and investors behind them.
That focus makes DesignQuantum a natural place to put your message in front of the people who matter most to quantum organizations: the talent you want to hire, the investors you want to meet and the buyers you want to win.
Why DesignQuantum
- Built for a specialist audience. Our coverage is technical, sourced and written for people who work in or around quantum technology, not for casual readers.
- Global from day one. Every article, explainer and profile is published natively in 25 languages, from English, Chinese, Hindi and Spanish to Arabic, Japanese, Korean and Portuguese, so your sponsorship reaches the quantum community worldwide.
- A directory built for research. More than 188 company profiles and 36 investor profiles, each written from cited sources, give sponsors context that ordinary ad networks cannot offer.
- Trust you can borrow. We never fabricate facts, and sponsorship never influences our news coverage, directory profiles or rankings. That credibility is what makes a sponsor placement here worth seeing.
Who we work with
1. Employers recruiting quantum talent
Hiring physicists, quantum software engineers, cryogenics specialists or control-electronics experts is hard, because there are few of them and they are spread across the world. DesignQuantum is built to reach exactly that community.
- Recruiting sponsorships: a labeled "Hiring" placement for your open roles across news and explainer pages.
- Featured employer slot on the directory profile of your company, linking to your careers page.
- Hiring announcements: short, clearly labeled sponsor posts for major recruiting drives, new labs or graduate programs.
2. Startups and companies seeking investors and visibility
Venture funds, corporate venture teams and public-sector programs need a fast way to follow the field and discover companies. Our directory and coverage are built for that, and sponsorship helps your company stand out when they look.
- Sponsored company profile: an enhanced, clearly labeled profile with your logo, a short company statement and links to your announcements. The sourced editorial profile stays independent and unchanged.
- Featured placement at the top of your directory category (for example trapped ions, photonics, error correction or post-quantum cryptography).
- Funding and milestone spotlights: labeled sponsor placements that point readers to your announcements.
3. Vendors and brands selling into the quantum industry
If you sell cryostats, lasers, control systems, software, cloud access, security products or professional services to quantum teams, DesignQuantum puts you in front of the engineers and decision-makers who specify and buy them.
- Display and sponsor slots on the home page, news articles and explainers, labeled "Sponsor".
- Directory category sponsorship: one sponsor per category, shown on that category's pages.
- Newsletter sponsorship in our free daily, weekly and monthly email digests, available now.
- Sponsored explainers: in-depth educational pieces on a topic relevant to your product, clearly labeled "Sponsored" and kept separate from our editorial explainers.

Our standards

- Sponsors have no influence over news coverage, directory profiles, categories or rankings.
- Sponsored explainers must be accurate and sourced; we reserve the right to decline content that is not.
