Our Location
innovation starts here

Our Location — Ismaning, Bavaria

magnitude GmbH is based in Ismaning, a traditional Bavarian town located just north of Munich. Only 15 minutes from both downtown Munich and the international airport, Ismaning offers the perfect balance of accessibility and focus — ideal for high-tech development and collaboration.

The region around Ismaning and nearby Garching is a vibrant hub for innovation and advanced research, hosting a dynamic mix of startups, established technology companies, and world-leading institutions such as the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics (MPQ).

Munich and Its “Quantum Valley”

Munich has emerged as one of Europe’s leading centers for quantum technology and deep-tech innovation. Supported by substantial public and private investment, the region fosters a strong ecosystem for research-driven companies.

Between 2021 and 2023, the State of Bavaria alone invested more than €300 million to accelerate the growth of Munich’s Quantum Valley — a thriving network uniting academia, startups, and industry to shape the future of quantum computing and its enabling technologies.
