Waterloo is Canada's quantum capital and one of the densest deep-tech founder ecosystems in the country. CFRI works with KW founders on agentic AI, post-quantum cryptography, and the commercialization of research coming out of UW, Perimeter, and IQC.
Perimeter Institute, IQC, and the University of Waterloo make KW the only Canadian city with first-class quantum research at scale. Combined with a generation of Shopify, Kik, and BlackBerry alumni, the founder density is exceptional.
