PINC Technologies Emerges from Stealth

We’re proud to back PINC Technologies, which just launched publicly with $6.8M in seed funding to pioneer scalable nonlinear photonics for quantum, AI, and sensing systems.

PINC’s breakthrough enables nonlinear optical chips at scale - unlocking new paradigms in compute, imaging, and communication. Built on years of deep materials science R&D, the team is creating a new platform for photonic infrastructure that traditional silicon photonics can’t touch.

Why Qubits Invested:

• Red-hot convergence of quantum systems, next-gen AI workloads, and optical computing
• Deep tech founding team w/ domain fluency across physics, materials, and systems integration
• Strong alignment with our thesis on the Future of Compute and Infrastructure

Congrats to Farzaneh Afshinmanesh and the entire PINC Technologies team on launching publicly and pushing the frontier of nonlinear photonics.
