Founded in 1998, Quantum Dot Corporation (QDC) develops and markets novel solutions for biomolecular detection. QDC's products and services employ quantum dot (Qdot®) particles, tiny semiconductor crystals that emit light brightly in a range of sharp colors. These nanometer-sized Qdot particles have unique, highly desirable properties that make them a superior detection platform for biology. QDC has invested many years in perfecting the methods for synthesis of high quality, high brightness quantum dots for biology.
QDC has raised over $37.5M in financing from preeminent venture groups including Versant Ventures, Abingworth Management, Technogen Associates, Schroder Ventures, Frazier & Co, MPM Asset Management, and CMEA Ventures. With additional funding from corporate partnerships and major government grants, and with product revenue ramping up, QDC is well financed to aggressively build revenues toward profitability.
QDC currently sells its research products directly, and through distributors, to customers in research laboratories throughout the world. QDC is also seeking applications development and marketing partners to accelerate the market acceptance of the Qdot technology and to leverage existing sales channels.
With enabling applications in life science research, in vitro diagnostic testing, and in vivo imaging, Qdot nanocrystals are set to revolutionize biomolecular detection.
