BTQ Technologies Added to WisdomTree Quantum
Computing Fund (WQTM), Expanding U.S. Thematic ETF Exposure
VANCOUVER, BC, March 2, 2026 /CNW/ - BTQ Technologies
Corp. ("BTQ" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: BTQ) (CBOE CA: BTQ) (FSE: NG3), a global quantum technology
company focused on securing mission-critical networks, is pleased to announce that BTQ has been included in the WisdomTree Quantum
Computing Fund (WQTM) (the "ETF"), a U.S.-listed thematic exchange traded fund designed to provide targeted exposure
to companies driving innovation across the emerging quantum computing ecosystem.
WQTM seeks to track the performance, before fees and
expenses, of the WisdomTree Classiq Quantum Computing Index, a proprietary index co-developed with Classiq, a leader in quantum software.
The fund is designed to provide investors with exposure to companies spanning quantum hardware, software, infrastructure, and enabling
technologies, combining pure-play innovators with diversified global technology leaders.
BTQ's inclusion in WQTM reflects the Company's expanding
relevance within the global quantum ecosystem, as a vertically integrated quantum technology company accelerating the transition from
classical networks to the quantum internet. Backed by a broad patent portfolio and recognized for pioneering commercially significant
quantum advantage, BTQ delivers a full-stack neutral-atom quantum computing platform spanning end-to-end hardware, middleware, and post-quantum
security solutions designed to support mission-critical applications across finance, telecommunications, logistics, life sciences, and
defense.
"As quantum computing moves closer to commercial
inflection, investors are increasingly looking for targeted ways to gain exposure to the companies helping define this next era of computing,"
said Olivier Roussy Newton, Chief Executive Officer of BTQ Technologies. "Our inclusion in the WisdomTree Quantum Computing
Fund further expands BTQ's visibility with U.S. thematic investors and reinforces the importance of security, infrastructure, and cryptographic
resilience as foundational layers of the quantum stack."
ETF and index context
WisdomTree describes WQTM as a fund offering targeted
exposure to companies at the forefront of quantum innovation across hardware, software, and infrastructure. The fund launched in October
2025 and is built to capture the long-term growth potential of quantum computing as the industry transitions from research toward commercialization.
The underlying WisdomTree Classiq Quantum Computing
Index uses a proprietary framework that evaluates both the relevance and purity of each constituent's exposure to quantum computing. The
strategy is intended to balance pure-play quantum companies with larger global leaders that are materially contributing to the development
and adoption of quantum technologies.
