Announcements

Infleqtion, the world’s leading quantum information company, is proud to announce the expansion of its Oxford operations, building on a series of recent achievements that reinforce the UK’s position as a quantum-enabled economy. Through collaborations with government, academia, and industry, Infleqtion is accelerating the development and deployment of quantum technologies and demonstrating the transformative impact they can have in areas like transportation, energy, healthcare, security, defence, advanced manufacturing, digital technologies, finance and banking. These efforts align with the UK’s strategic goals to strengthen its technological infrastructure and national security, and will be on full display at the UK National Quantum Technologies Showcase 2024 on the 8th of November, 2024.

Quantum technology (QT) is transforming industries from healthcare to communications, but its advancement depends on the reliability of core components. Today, significant progress has been achieved on that journey. Infleqtion and Thorlabs are pleased to announce a new agreement to commercialise Infleqtion’s highly integrated optical fibre collimation package.

Infleqtion today announced it has been awarded a $1.15M grant by the Department of Energy (DOE) under the SBIR Phase IIB program. This grant marks the first DOE SBIR Phase IIB award given to software for quantum computing and will help advance Infleqtion’s work on Superstaq, the company’s software platform purpose-built to optimize quantum computing performance.

Infleqtion announced an expansion of its work with the Australian Army as part of the Quantum Technology Challenge (QTC). Infleqtion is collaborating with the Australian Army and Diraq, a quantum computing company based in Sydney, to establish more trustworthy quantum computation through quantum physically unclonable functions (QPUFs).

Infleqtion UK is delighted to announce the successful completion of the first phase of its Quantum Enhanced Inertial Navigation Systems (Q-NAV) project awarded by Innovate UK, culminating in its Quantum Navigation Industry Day on 27 June.

We’re thrilled to announce the installation of our state-of-the-art neutral atom quantum computer at the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC). As the first company to deploy hardware under the NQCC’s quantum computing testbed programme, this milestone showcases our cutting-edge technology and dedication to advancing quantum computing infrastructure.

Infleqtion announced the appointment of Dr. Pat Tang as Chief Engineering Officer. With an impressive 24-year track record in technology leadership, Dr. Tang brings a wealth of experience from his roles at IonQ, Amazon Lab126, and Apple.

Infleqtion is delighted to announce the first UK commercial delivery of its groundbreaking optical atomic clock, Tiqker™, to the University of Strathclyde. This marks a historic milestone as the first sale and commercial delivery of any optical atomic clock within the UK.

Oqtant is online this week, May 28-30. Oqtant user Joshua John’s recent story on Medium explores dark solitons in BECs, which “offer a unique avenue for exploring nonlinear phenomena and hold promise for QIP applications.”
