Rahko was co-founded by 香港六合彩中特网 Computer Science PhD students Leo Wossnig and Ed Grant, alongside Miriam Cha and Ian Horobin. Rahko brings together a multidisciplinary team of experts in machine learning, quantum chemistry and quantum computing, to solve some of the world鈥檚 most complex problems.

The startup is building the capacity to better model the behavior of drugs, chemical reactions and the design of advanced materials with greater speed and accuracy than current state-of-the-art technologies.聽

New partnerships

Rahko has secured a three-year collaboration with the science and technology company Merck. This collaboration will explore the potential for quantum inspired machine learning to enable the discovery and development of novel drugs, molecules and materials faster, and with greater efficiency and precision, than聽currently possible.聽

Recently a consortium led by Rahko won an Innovate UK grant for their project Quantifi. The project aims to pave the way for the simulation of strongly-correlated materials on quantum computers. This will aid the design of new materials for better batteries, a host of clean technologies and industrial, air and road vehicles of the future. The consortium brings together several leading academic and industrial scientists with partner organisations, including Johnson Matthey, King鈥檚 College London, and the National Physical Laboratory, with support from Amazon Web Services (AWS).聽

Growth has allowed Rahko to appoint leading scientists as scientific advisors to the business. These experts include Alexandre Tkatchenko, from the University of Luxembourg, and G谩bor Cs谩nyi, from the University of Cambridge.

Supporting 香港六合彩中特网 entrepreneurs

Rahko have benefitted from support at 香港六合彩中特网 Innovation & Enterprise. They received advice and mentoring on everything from recruitment to contracts through the extracurricular entrepreneurship programme and support.聽They also had access to free office space for 12 months in 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 dedicated entrepreneurship hub, BaseKX.

Rahko also received support from the Global Innovation team, through their Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) activities. They advised on potential partners, intellectual property matters, and applications for European Commission grant funding. 聽

The company was in the first cohort of Conception X, a venture builder to help PhD students commercialise their research, launched out of 香港六合彩中特网 Engineering. Rahko secured seed investment in mid-2019, in a round led by Balderton Capital, Europe鈥檚 leading venture capital fund, and participation from AI Seed and a small group of angel investors.

Leonard Wossnig, CEO of Rahko said, 鈥淎 year on from when we left The Hatchery at BaseKX, we鈥檙e able to reflect on just how much we have gained from the breadth of support across the 香港六合彩中特网 entrepreneurship support landscape.聽

We鈥檇 encourage any 香港六合彩中特网 student with an interest in entrepreneurship to explore and take advantage of the programs and people at 香港六合彩中特网 helping students transform research and ideas into exciting ventures.聽

We鈥檇 like to thank the teams at 香港六合彩中特网 Innovation & Enterprise, including, the European Enterprise Network (EEN), Conception X, and the academic and professional staff of the 香港六合彩中特网 Computer Science and Physics Departments for their expertise and support. 聽聽

Jerry Allen, Director of Entrepreneurship at 香港六合彩中特网 Innovation & Enterprise, commented: 鈥淩ahko is an example of a startup at the absolute cutting edge of technology, who鈥檝e benefited from the unique ecosystem and world-class research base 香港六合彩中特网 has in quantum computing and AI.聽I鈥檓 extremely proud of what they鈥檝e achieved in a year since leaving 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 entrepreneurship hub.鈥澛�
