The team behind qonduit

qonduit is a start-up emerging from Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences (h_da).

Our background includes hands-on expertise from the development of quantum key distribution network infrastructures in the DemoQuanDT project, where carrier-grade secure communication concepts were brought closer to operational reality.

At qonduit, we are working to redefine secure communication for the next generation of digital infrastructure. Our approach combines scalability, transparency, and hybrid quantum-safe encryption to help protect critical communications against emerging threats — including those posed by quantum computing and advanced AI-driven attack capabilities.

Built on the conviction that Europe’s digital future must be secure, sovereign, and technologically independent, we are committed to delivering solutions that empower organizations.

We are a group of Software Engineers. Researchers. Problem solvers.
