CORE SERVICES
Deep technical expertise, from strategy to delivery
IoniQ supports government, defence, industry, startups and investors across the full journey from emerging science to operational capability. Our work spans quantum and technology strategy, defence and space applications, modelling and simulation, systems engineering, technical bids and specialist advisory.
We can deliver defined work packages, provide independent technical advice, or embed specialists directly within your team. As an approved supplier across a range of UK defence research frameworks, we can also be engaged through procurement routes you already use.

What we do
Five ways we support our clients — across government, defence, space, start-ups & scaleups, and investors.

Quantum technology strategy
Independent expertise spanning quantum computing, sensing, timing and communications. We help organisations assess opportunities, understand technical maturity and use cases, develop roadmaps and make informed decisions about where and quantum can deliver value.

Defence & space
Turning emerging technology into credible defence and space applications. We assess use cases, operational requirements and technology maturity, helping programmes navigate the journey from laboratory concept through demonstration, integration and deployment.

Modelling & simulation
Physics-led modelling and simulation for complex defence systems. Our experience spans RF and radar, EO/IR, electronic countermeasures, PNT, weapons and sensor systems, providing quantitative evidence to support engineering, design and programme decisions.

Systems engineering
Bridging the gap between a promising demonstration and a deployable system: requirements capture, risk mapping, and supply chain and market analysis.

Startup & investor advisory
Independent technical and strategic advice for deep-tech founders and investors. We support market and defence entry, technology roadmapping, product positioning and introductions, alongside technically grounded due diligence for investors assessing complex technologies.
