About Exail
Exail Technologies is a French industrial company formed in 2022 from the merger of ECA Group and iXBlue, specializing in cutting-edge technologies in autonomous robotics, navigation, aerospace, and photonics. Led by CEO Dominique Giannoni, Exail’s quantum sensing division leverages decades of research from former students and colleagues of 2022 physics Nobel Prize winner Alain Aspect. In 2021, Exail acquired Muquans, the world’s first company to commercialize industry-grade quantum sensors founded by Aspect’s former students. Exail develops quantum gravimeters, quantum accelerometers, and quantum inertial navigation systems exploiting quantum advantages for precision measurement. The company is involved in the CARIOQA-PMP European project developing a space-grade quantum gravimeter for Earth and climate monitoring. In 2022, Exail demonstrated a 3-axis hybrid quantum accelerometer, advancing toward drift-free inertial navigation systems. Headquartered in Paris, Exail represents France’s strategic leadership in quantum sensing for defense, aerospace, navigation, and scientific applications.
2025 Developments: Advancements in quantum sensing technology and applications continue throughout 2025. Focus on commercializing quantum sensors for defense, navigation, and medical applications. Ongoing collaborations with government agencies and industrial partners.
