UbiQD

UbiQD is a global leader in quantum dot manufacturing and technology, headquartered in Los Alamos, New Mexico, founded in 2014 by Hunter McDaniel. The company licenses technology developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory and MIT, producing quantum dots through an alternative, inexpensive process using low-cost and nontoxic elements. UbiQD powers product innovation in agriculture, clean energy, and security. The company's UbiGro® greenhouse technology uses fluorescence to create optimal spectrum for crops. In April 2025, UbiQD closed a $20 million Series B financing round led by Phoenix Venture Partners. UbiQD established an exclusive, multi-year agreement to supply proprietary fluorescent quantum dot technology to First Solar for incorporation into thin film bifacial photovoltaic solar panels, advancing quantum dot applications in renewable energy.
