With the passage of the National Quantum Initiative Act, January’s Quantum Information Processing Conference held at CU Boulder and the launch of our CUbit Quantum Initiative, it’s a terrific time to be working in quantum science and technology at CU Boulder. To help you make the most of expanding opportunities in quantum, we will be sharing this monthly update with our quantum community—including faculty, researchers and industry partners—to stimulate increased funding, collaboration and innovation in our work. Please enjoy!

On January 17, 2019, the University of Colorado Boulder announced the establishment of the CUbit (pronounced Q-bit) Quantum Initiative, a cross-campus initiative for quantum science and technology.
The CU Boulder Research & Innovation Office announced the results of a new Quantum Explorations in Science and Technology (QuEST) funding opportunity made available in October 2018 to multi-disciplinary, trans-institutional research partnerships that will be competitive for future funding opportunities of the National Quantum Initiative and other quantum research solicitations.
