Sparrow Quantum
Series A in 2025
Sparrow Quantum specializes in developing deterministic single-photon sources for advancing light-matter interfaces in quantum technologies. With a focus on high efficiency, purity, indistinguishability, and outcoupling, the company's technology is based on over two decades of research at the Niels Bohr Institute.
Hemab is a company that creates preventative treatments for bleeding and thrombosis problems. The medicines developed by the business aggregate, modify, balance, and at times recruit endogenous clotting components already present in the blood to the site of injury, allowing patients to produce hemostatic plugs or clots to avert life-threatening complications.
Hemab Therapeutics was established in 2017 in Copenhagen, Hovedstaden by Johan H. Faber and Mads Behrndt.
