“Thanks to ACET, Ki3 Photonics was able to address its weaknesses, solidify its foundations and effectively prepare for the acquisition of new customers and contracts.
ACET’s on-demand coaching programs and mentor qualities are perfectly suited to the needs and growth of young quantum companies.”
“As an early startup, it’s often a challenge to maintain a polished operation on all fronts. ACET’s team has elevated our operations to a professional level with their guidance and expertise. It is particularly helpful to work with professionals who understand the nuances of deep tech. We are very grateful to have ACET advising our company!”
“Working with our head coach at ACET Quantum is like having another co-founder on the team – one that cares deeply about us and our success. Time and resources are scarce in startups, so this has made all the difference.”
“The forward-thinking experts at ACET’s quantum program have nurtured our startup’s unconventional material discovery ideas, helping us refine our mission and identify the most promising markets. Despite our approach being considered a misfit for ‘traditional’ quantum applications, the actionable support from ACET’s advisers has turned the challenge to our advantage and has enabled us to achieve critical technology milestones and strengthen our value proposition.”
“It takes a village to train an entrepreneur, and ACET is my village. Their dedicated coaches have provided me with the reflexes, tools and expertise to evolve as an entrepreneur and steer my company’s growth in the right direction.”
ACET Quantum is Canada’s first accelerator dedicated to quantum technology startups. We provide strategic guidance, specialized resources, and privileged access to a network of experts to propel your company to the forefront of quantum innovation.
ACET is located at the heart of DistriQ, Sherbrooke’s Quantum Innovation Zone, a world-renowned ecosystem dedicated to accelerating quantum innovations.
DistriQ is an organization that catalyzes expertise and infrastructure, connects and integrates collaborative initiatives by increasing synergy between the various players in the quantum ecosystem at provincial, national and global levels.
In November 2023, the Quebec government awarded more than $65.3 million to support the realization of five projects in the DistriQ Quantum Innovation Zone.
Our coaches bring a unique blend of quantum expertise and business acumen to guide your startup’s journey.
