Quantum Systems valued at €3 billion after new investment round

German startup Quantum Systems, specializing in the manufacturing of surveillance drones, increased its valuation to €3 billion in a new funding round, raising €180 million.

Quantum Systems, based in Germany, announced a significant increase in its valuation after raising €180 million in investments. One of the key investors was the Balderton Capital fund. According to the company’s co-executive director Sven Krüke, the new company valuation is three times its worth after the previous funding round in May. The funds raised will be directed towards increasing production capacities of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and funding the development of anti-drone systems planned to launch next year.

Quantum Systems is actively developing collaboration with Ukraine. In 2024, the company opened a manufacturing facility in Ukraine, and in 2025, it signed a strategic partnership memorandum with the Ukrainian company Frontline. This memorandum was reinforced by the acquisition of a 10% stake in Frontline, with the option to increase the share to 25%. The financing became a logical conclusion to Frontline’s seed round of $800,000, participated in by funds such as Nezlamni, Startup Wise Guys, Angel One, Freedom Fund, and private investors.

In August 2025, Quantum Systems announced the testing of the new drone Sparta, which has the capability to transport and launch FPV drones over significant distances. This innovation underscores the company’s strategic aim to expand its product range and integrate the latest innovations into its developments.
