BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 5, 2025 \u2014\u00a0Atom Computing<\/a> today announced a significant step in its commitment to the European quantum ecosystem with the appointment of Jesper Kamp as Regional Director for Europe. He will be based in Atom Computing\u2019s Denmark office, effective immediately.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Jesper Kamp<\/p>\n

Kamp brings two decades of distinguished leadership in diplomacy, innovation policy, and strategic international engagement. Most recently, he served as Ambassador, Consul General, and CEO of Innovation Centre Denmark in Silicon Valley under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark. Kamp\u2019s experience at the intersection of technology, geopolitics, and global public affairs will be instrumental as Atom Computing deepens its Danish and European presence and strengthens cross-sector collaboration within the rapidly emerging quantum ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Dr. Ben Bloom, CEO and Founder of Atom Computing, commented: \u201cEurope plays an increasingly critical role in shaping the global quantum landscape. Jesper\u2019s unique background in diplomacy and innovation will help us build meaningful partnerships that advance the development and responsible deployment of quantum technologies. His appointment reflects our commitment to engaging strategically with European institutions, industry leaders, and governments to accelerate the path toward quantum advantage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jesper Kamp added: \u201cAfter more than 20 inspiring years in the Foreign Service, I am proud to join Atom Computing, a global frontrunner in quantum technology. The evolution of quantum and atom-based computing is no longer a scientific frontier alone; it is a strategic imperative for Europe\u2019s technological sovereignty, security infrastructure, and economic resilience. I look forward to contributing to Atom Computing\u2019s mission and forging strong partnerships across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

This appointment builds on Atom Computing\u2019s increasing engagement in the region. Novo Nordisk Foundation and EIFO (Export and Investment Fund of Denmark), recently announced their $93 million investment to establish QuNorth and acquire \u201cMagne,\u201d the world\u2019s most powerful quantum computer. Magne, which will be located in Copenhagen, will be powered by Atom Computing\u2019s neutral atom hardware and further solidify Denmark\u2019s role in advancing both the European and global quantum ecosystems.<\/p>\n

With Kamp\u2019s leadership, Atom Computing will further align its European initiatives with its global mission: to accelerate the path to practical quantum advantage through scalable, high-fidelity neutral atom quantum computing platforms.<\/p>\n
