IonQ (NYSE: ION) has become the only quantum company on the 2025 Deloitte Technology Fast 500, a ranking of North America’s fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies. The distinction comes amid nearly 2,000% revenue growth between 2021 and 2024, highlighting the accelerating adoption of IonQ’s quantum computing platforms across commercial and government sectors worldwide.
The company’s growth underscores its ability to translate advanced quantum research into practical, enterprise-ready solutions. IonQ has steadily expanded its offerings, including quantum computing, networking, sensing, and security technologies, allowing organizations to address computational problems beyond the reach of classical systems.
“IonQ has experienced substantial growth, exceeding revenue expectations and achieving key technology milestones ahead of schedule,” said Niccolo de Masi, chairman and CEO. “Being the only quantum company named to the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 highlights the growing commercial relevance of quantum technologies and the trust our customers place in us.”
The Deloitte Fast 500, now in its 31st year, evaluates companies based on fiscal-year revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. Wolfe Tone, US Deloitte Private & Emerging Client Portfolio leader and partner at Deloitte Tax LLP, noted, “This year’s rankings showcase both enduring leadership and breakthrough momentum. Private companies continue to dominate, demonstrating the agility and innovation that enable exceptional triple- and quadruple-digit growth.”
IonQ’s recognition follows a series of accolades including Forbes’ Most Successful Mid-Cap Companies, Newsweek’s Excellence Index 1000, Built In’s Best Midsize Places to Work, and Fortune’s Future 50 award. The company has delivered multiple quantum computers and hundreds of quantum sensors to enterprises and government agencies, supporting applications in AI, cryptography, and national security.
“Being the first and only quantum company on this list reflects the tangible progress our industry is making,” de Masi added. “We’re moving quantum from the lab into real-world applications, helping organizations solve problems that were previously thought unsolvable.”
