#EDA #TechHub Phase 2 funded! Let’s go! We are proud to announce $127m in Federal and State funding to support Elevate Quantum initiatives. Following an extensive review process, Elevate Quantum is honored to have been selected for the Tech Hubs Phase 2 implementation award by the Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration. The award, totaling $40.5M, secures an additional >$80M in funding from the states of Colorado and New Mexico, and up to $1B in private capital investment – with a shot at $960M in additional federal grants through the Tech Hub program. These investments keep America and the Mountain West at the forefront of the most important race of the 21st century, creating the quantum infrastructure of tomorrow and securing our national security interests. We stand on the shoulders of giants. Special shout outs to: - Colorado Gov. Jared Polis and New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham; Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade's Eve Lieberman, and New Mexico's Alex Greenberg) - The federal delegations of Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mexico, in particular Sen.

EIFO investerer i mere kvanteteknologi 💰 EIFO investerer 70 mio. kr. i amerikanske Atom Computing, der er et af verdens førende kvantecomputerselskaber. På baggrund af investeringen har det californisk-baserede firma valgt Danmark som sit europæiske hovedkontor. Atom Computing deltager i et kapløb om at være de første til at lancere en brugbar kvantecomputer, og derfor vil deres tilstedeværelse i Danmark også bringe førende kvantecomputerteknologi, knowhow og job til det danske kvanteøkosystem. EIFOs investering flugter med regeringens nationale kvantestrategi om at blive et knudepunkt for international kvanteteknologi, hvor man tiltrækker udenlandske kvantevirksomheder til Danmark. 📢 ”Kvantemiljøet herhjemme har altid været stærkt på den akademiske side og vi vil rigtig gerne kommercialisere den forskning og teknologi. I Danmark har vi den akademiske, faglige viden til at bringe kvante skridtet videre. Der er masser af virksomheder, der springer ud, men ikke så mange, der bygger hardware. Derfor er vi meget glade for samarbejdet med Atom Computing og det dygtige team bag, som nu etablerer et europæisk kontor med base i Danmark. Med EIFOs investering ønsker vi at få eksponering til en ny teknologiplatform og samtidig styrke det danske økosystem for kvanteteknologi," siger CEO i EIFO Peder Lundquist. 📢”Hos Atom Computing er vi begejstrede for at samarbejde med Danmark på grund af Danmarks fortsatte investering i kvanteforskning kombineret med den klare motivation fra den akademiske verden, regeringen og industrien til at kommercialisere kvanteforskningsområdet og få det ud af laboratorierne til udrulning. Vi mener, at dette partnerskab fremmer de nationale, strategiske retninger i begge vores lande," siger Rob Hays, CEO i Atom Computing. 👉 Læs mere: https://lnkd.in/ewKuFWBu 📸 Atom Computing.
