Monarch Quantum reposted this
What new capabilities are unlocked when high-quality, narrow bandwidth entangled photons can be broadcast from a satellite, a drone, or a remote sensor instead of a data center rack? We're working with Monarch Quantum, combining their manufacturing and miniaturization expertise with our Carina system, the hardware that anchors the largest entanglement-based quantum networks in the world. Distributing entanglement onto live fiber was one milestone. Moving from data centers to satellites is the next one. What would you deploy if the quantum hardware could go anywhere?

Light Inside 💡 | Precision as a practice In this edition of Light Inside, Andrew Bollman, Photonics Technician at Monarch Quantum, shares what it takes to build the laser and optical systems at the heart of our Quantum Light Engines and why the best technicians treat every measurement like it matters. At this level of precision, what separates good work from great work is the mindset you bring to the details that no one else sees. Read Andy’s perspective on the skilled craft that makes quantum technology real. #LightInside #MonarchQuantum #QuantumLightEngines

Last week, Monarch Quantum hosted faculty and STEM students from California State University San Marcos' College of Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics Summer Scholars Program for a facility tour and panel on what it takes to build a career in quantum. Students got a firsthand look at what a quantum photonics company does day to day, from lab to leadership, and a direct line to ask career questions to the people doing the work. CSUSM is a founding member of the SoCal Quantum Alliance alongside Monarch Quantum and we're proud to grow that partnership and invest in the workforce that will carry this industry forward. #MonarchQuantum #QuantumLightEngines

Congratulations to the Oratomic team! We're proud to work alongside Oratomic to bring fault-tolerant quantum computing from research to deployment at scale. #MonarchQuantum #QuantumLightEngines
Join Our Team We at Oratomic are looking for exceptional individuals to join us in building the world’s first fault-tolerant quantum computer. A quantum computer, that is fault-tolerant and capable of useful applications, would enable a fundamentally new model of computation that could have consequences far beyond what we can predict today. We believe this will be one of our generation’s defining technological achievements. We also believe it can be realized with a small, focused team. This is possible because our recent advances have resulted in a substantially simpler approach to quantum error correction, based on reconfigurable atomic arrays trapped in focused laser beams. The problem involves frontier research and technology across advanced optical systems, electronics, atomic physics, mathematical algorithms, and error correction, all combined in a complex integrated fashion to realize this new type of computer. We are building artificial intelligence systems to automate our research and the design of the quantum computer. We have raised a $300 million Series A, co-led by ARCH Venture Partners, Spark Capital, Khosla Ventures, alongside Bezos Expeditions, Index Ventures, General Catalyst, Lowercarbon Capital, Bain Capital, Formation, Nebular, David and Scott Aaronson, and others. Our objective is straightforward: build a fault-tolerant quantum computer. We are not pursuing intermediate products or commercial systems along the way. We are seeking exceptional generalists, scientists, engineers, and technicians who enjoy solving difficult problems, working across disciplines in a tight-knit team, and building things that have not existed before. A background in quantum computing is not required.

Today, our Chairman & CEO, Dr. Tim Day joined with U.S. government and industry leaders in Washington, D.C. for the White House Summit on American Quantum Innovation. Dr. Tim Day took part in the panel on Supply Chain & Workforce, a conversation focused on one of the most consequential challenges facing our industry: building a resilient, domestic supply chain and cultivating the specialized talent pipeline needed to scale quantum technology from research labs into deployed systems. The summit follows two executive orders signed by President Trump in June aimed at strengthening U.S. quantum research ecosystem and accelerating the transition to post-quantum cryptography across critical infrastructure. We’re proud to have Monarch Quantum represented and grateful for the invitation to help shape where this industry goes next. #AmericanQuantumInnovation #MonarchQuantum #QuantumLightEngines
