Qbeat Ventures is a venture capital firm based in Tel Aviv, Israel, founded in 2024 by Dr. Dorit Dor, Maya Racine Netser, and Joab Rosenberg. The firm specializes in early-stage investments, from pre-Seed to Series A, in companies developing quantum technologies. It primarily focuses on the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region, with a particular emphasis on the Israeli startup ecosystem.

The firm was established by seasoned technology and business professionals. Dr. Dorit Dor was the Chief Product Officer and Chief Technology Officer at Check Point Software Technologies for nearly three decades. Maya Racine Netser previously served as CEO of Cabaret Biotech, leading it to an acquisition by Kite Pharma and Gilead Sciences, and headed the Tech practice at the Herzog Fox & Neeman law firm.

Qbeat Ventures operates with a fund aiming to raise an estimated $100 million to invest in a portfolio of 12 to 15 companies. The firm's business model is centered on leveraging its team's deep technical knowledge and extensive network to identify and support startups that are bridging the gap between scientific research and commercial viability. The investment strategy includes both hardware and software companies, targeting enabling technologies and infrastructure for the quantum ecosystem, such as quantum chip testing, to diversify its portfolio. Qbeat provides more than capital, offering strategic guidance and access to its network of industry leaders. Its portfolio includes companies like Classiq, a quantum software company, QuamCore, which develops superconducting quantum processor architecture, and Orange Quantum Systems, a Dutch company specializing in quantum chip testing.
