Quanmatic Wins '11th JEITA Venture Award' for Optimization Technology Combining Quantum Computing and AI

Quanmatic Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CTO: Yosuke Mukasa) has received the "11th JEITA Venture Award," hosted by the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA).

This award recognizes and honors venture companies that contribute to the comprehensive development of the electronics and information technology industries, economic growth, and the post-COVID "new normal" society, evaluated from the perspectives of growth potential, leadership, ripple effects, and social impact. The award committee highly evaluated Quanmatic for its unique optimization method that fuses quantum computing and AI, which precisely reflects the complex constraints specific to operational sites and realizes social implementation in a form that is truly usable in the field.

Reason for the Award *Excerpt from the JEITA press release (https://www.jeita.or.jp/japanese/topics/2026/0327.pdf)

Quanmatic Inc. provides optimization calculation solutions that can precisely reflect complex, site-specific constraints through a unique method that fuses quantum computing and AI. The company has already achieved results such as reducing equipment operation loss by approximately 40%, realizing social implementation in a form that is truly usable in the field, rather than remaining merely theoretical. Their current strategy of maximizing the advantages of quantum computing on classical computers while accumulating practical data and implementation experience will be a significant advantage for the arrival of the quantum computing era. We strongly expect them to lead social implementation by utilizing quantum technology until the full-scale practical application of quantum computers, and to solve complex problems. Therefore, we have determined that they are worthy of the JEITA Venture Award.

Comment from Yosuke Mukasa, Representative Director and CTO of Quanmatic We accept this recognition as a tailwind for our approach, which has focused not only on theory but also on field implementation. While currently maximizing the advantages of quantum computing on classical computers, we will continue to serve as a bridge to the full-scale practical application of quantum computers, balancing the deepening of our technology with the expansion of its social implementation.

Future Outlook Quanmatic has focused on connecting quantum computing technology and mathematical optimization to solve real-world problems, addressing optimization issues in sectors such as logistics, manufacturing, finance, and the public sector. Moving forward, we will continue to promote the social implementation of optimization solutions that are used in the field and create value through realistic approaches tailored to the progress of quantum technology.
