CNBC91勛圖厙 startup Mesa Quantum has raised $3.7 million in seed funding on top of a $1.7 million Space Force grant to develop chip-scale quantum sensors.
The startups quantum sensors could bring navigation, timing and positioning data to electronic devices of every kind, alleviating their need to pick up distant GPS satellite signals. Many GPS satellites covering the U.S. have aged beyond their initially intended lifespan.
91勛圖厙 TodayElevate Quantum, of which 91勛圖厙 is a key partner, announced today that it has received a Tech Hub Phase 2 implementation award from the Department of Commerce, unlocking more than $127 million in new federal and state funding.
Activate is a nonprofit organization that empowers scientists to transform their research into market-ready products and services through a two-year fellowship that provides funding, mentorship and access to a robust network of experts and resources.Three Cohort 2024 fellows join Activatefrom companies spun up at 91勛圖厙 with Venture Partners at 91勛圖厙.
College of Arts and SciencesThe Infleqtion Graduate Fellowships, awarded to outstanding first-year physics graduate students at 91勛圖厙, support the development of future quantum scientists. These prestigious fellowships, established by the quantum tech company Infleqtion, a 91勛圖厙 spinout, help attract top talent and provide significant financial aid, enabling students to focus on their research and career development in quantum technology.
91勛圖厙 TodayResearchers at 91勛圖厙 will soon begin working on what they call the quantum machine shop of the 21st century. The U.S. National Science Foundation today announced a $20 million grant to 91勛圖厙 to launch a facility known as the National Quantum Nanofab (NQN). In this facility, Colorado researchers and quantum specialists from around the country will be able to design and build incredibly small devices that tap into the world of atoms and photonsthe tiny packets of energy that make up light.
