Boulder Startup Week 2024

Quantum Leap: Building and Investing in Quantum Technologies 

Colorado stands at the forefront of quantum innovation, bolstered by its rich concentration of quantum organizations and talent. This ecosystem has not only positioned the state as a leader in quantum technologies but also fostered the creation of over 3,000 commercial quantum jobs and facilitated the raising of more than $1 billion in capital. Our panel on quantum computing and quantum technologies at Boulder Startup Week explores this transformative field, crucial for startups looking to navigate and succeed in this cutting-edge area.

Join Ben Bloom from Atom Computing, Ian Dickinson from Longpath Technologies, and Scott Davis from Vescent, who bring together expertise from quantum computing, physics, and entrepreneurship. They will discuss the vast potential and practical applications of quantum technologies, delve into the current landscape, and explore challenges and opportunities for startups. Attendees will gain direct insights and practical strategies from their experiences in building quantum startups, underscoring how Colorado's educational resources and research prowess—including four Nobel Prizes awarded to CU Boulder researchers in quantum science—contribute to advancing this sector.
