Elevate Quantum

Elevate Quantum is the US Economic Development Administration Tech Hub for quantum computing in the Mountain West region (Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming). In July 2024, the Biden-Harris Administration awarded $41 million in federal funding through the EDA's Tech Hubs Program, part of a potential total of $127 million in Phase 2 implementation funding. The consortium unites 120+ organizations including companies, universities, and government entities.

The consortium focuses on building quantum technology infrastructure, workforce development programs, and commercialization support across the Rocky Mountain quantum corridor. Key partners include University of Colorado Boulder, Colorado School of Mines, and major industry players. Groundbreaking ceremony held in 2024 for new quantum facilities.

Major achievements include establishing the Mountain West as a global quantum leader, creating pathways for quantum workforce development, and coordinating regional quantum ecosystem development. The hub addresses the full quantum technology stack from fundamental research to commercial applications.
