## About

Based in Eindhoven, Netherlands, and founded in 2021 by Chief Executive Officer Simone Cardarelli and Chief Technology Officer Marco Fattori, MicroAlign B.V. operates as a manufacturing company providing technology for micro positioning of optical fibers. In February 2026, MicroAlign B.V. raised an undisclosed amount of venture funding from European Innovation Council. The round was part of a larger EUR 2.5 million venture and grant funding.

MicroAlign B.V. developed a micro-positioning system designed to provide per-fiber alignment capabilities for improving the coupling efficiency between optical fibers and photonic integrated chips. The company’s system includes advanced control electronics and software to ensure the alignment. Its technology is for industries requiring precise optical connections, such as quantum computing, where photon transmission is critical. In addition, the firm provides solutions to improve the performance of photonic devices in the photonics and high-tech sectors.

The company will use the February 2026 funding to transition manufacturing from pilot-scale to high-volume production to industrialize high-precision fiber arrays for photonic quantum computing systems.
