SUPERQ QUANTUM SELECTED FOR CANADIAN GOVERNMENT-BACKED DEEP TECH TRADE MISSION TO BARCELONA; ACCELERATES EUROPEAN MARKET EXPANSION

SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. has been selected to participate in deep tech Canada's trade mission to Barcelona, taking place Nov. 2 to Nov. 5, 2026. This milestone represents a major recognition of SuperQ's commercial potential and marks a vetted strategic expansion into the rapidly growing European deep tech market.

A vetted endorsement of quantum leadership

The deep tech trade mission is a highly competitive initiative that supports Canadian companies developing advanced technologies for smart and sustainable cities, including artificial intelligence, computing, mobility, energy, infrastructure and urban systems. Due to a high level of interest and limited capacity, the organizer prioritizes access based on company profiles, strategic fit and commercialization potential. SuperQ's selection, alongside being chosen to receive competitive travel support, serves as a strong endorsement of the company's status as a leader in quantum and supercomputing.

SuperQ will participate as an official exhibitor. The company will have its own display space in the Canadian pavilion, and will receive full access to all trade mission sessions, networking events and site visits. Participants will engage directly with global city leaders, corporates, investors and research institutions, positioning themselves within Europe's rapidly evolving urban innovation ecosystem.

Capitalizing on Spain's quantum momentum

The mission includes entrance to the Smart City Expo World Congress and the co-located Barcelona Deep Tech Summit. The Smart City Expo World Congress is the world's leading event for urban innovation, bringing together over 25,000 attendees, 850 cities and 1,000 exhibitors globally. The co-located Deep Tech Summit bridges the gap between research and real-world deployment by connecting science-based start-ups directly with international investors and public sector buyers.

Barcelona is rapidly emerging as a European powerhouse for quantum and deep tech ecosystems. The region is anchored by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, which houses the MareNostrum 5 supercomputer and co-ordinates the 22-million-euro Quantum Spain initiative to develop a high performance quantum computer infrastructure. Further bolstered by the 43-million-euro Vall de la Quantica (Quantum Valley) program, Barcelona provides an optimal, heavily financed environment for SuperQ to scale its commercial offerings.

"Being selected for the deep tech innovation mission to Barcelona is a major validation of SuperQ's practical utility and global market readiness," stated Dr. Muhammad Ali Khan, chief executive officer and board chair of SuperQ. "Similar to our recent government-backed expansion into the U.S. defence sector, entering the European market through a vetted, government-backed channel ensures we are engaging with serious public sector buyers and enterprise partners. Barcelona's leadership in quantum tech perfectly aligns with our mission to optimize critical infrastructure and energy systems using hybrid quantum-classical architecture."

Driving immediate return on investment in critical infrastructure

At the Canadian pavilion, SuperQ intends to showcase the practical applications of its proprietary Super platform, Super OS, and the in-development Super Nova modular hybrid quantum hardware, demonstrating how quantum and supercomputing can solve complex challenges in mobility, decentralized energy and smart city planning. This European expansion reinforces SuperQ's commitment to reducing the technical and financial barriers to quantum and supercomputing commercialization worldwide.

About SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc.

SuperQ is building the operating system, Super OS, to unify quantum and supercomputing for data centre and enterprise deployment. This OS will run on SuperQ's in-development Super Nova hybrid quantum computers and third party hardware. The company's already commercialized Super platform enables enterprises, government and research institutions to autonomously solve complex optimization and cybersecurity challenges by combining quantum and high performance computing. The company is also putting quantum computing in the palm of consumers' hands through ChatQLM -- the world's first consumer application powered by hybrid quantum and supercomputing.

SuperQ Quantum is headquartered in Canada with a growing international presence, particularly in the United States, Middle East and Asia, strategically establishing Super hubs in key regions. Through the Super platform, Super OS, Super Nova and ChatQLM, the company is taking quantum computing utility and quantum security beyond boardroom meetings to production-grade solutions.
