Agnostiq secures $2.4 million CAD to accelerate development of quantum computing software Toronto-based software startup Agnostiq has raised a $2.4 million CAD ($2 million USD) seed round to bolster its quantum computing platform. The round, which closed in December, was led by New York’s Differential Ventures, and saw participation from Scout Ventures, Tensility Venture Partners, Boost VC, and Green Egg Ventures. For Differential and Boost, it was their second investment in the Toronto startup, as they previously provided the majority of Agnostiq’s $1 million CAD ($830,000 USD) pre-seed round. Agnostic currently serves financial services organizations in Canada and the United States. In an interview, Elliot MacGowan, Agnostiq’s co-founder and COO, told BetaKit the company decided to raise the round after gaining some product traction and identifying a market opportunity.
