What we’re about
Group Purpose
Colorado Quantum is here to help build a community that includes quantum computing innovators and people who use or plan to use the technology. Our mission is to bring education and understanding about quantum hardware and software to people who want to work in the field and to early adaptors who want to use the technology, to help them evaluate when and how they can incorporate it into their workflow.
Our topics include the science and technology of quantum computing. We also discuss use-cases, state of the quantum ecosystem, when will quantum computers offer value.
Colorado Quantum brings quantum computing innovators together with technology adopters to build an economically thriving community.

Join us for an engaging evening exploring Colorado’s dynamic quantum technology ecosystem. This meetup will feature a presentation that maps out the diverse landscape of quantum companies across our state — from hardware innovators and quantum software startups to enabling suppliers, advanced labs, and quantum-ready manufacturing partners.
We’ll break down who’s here, what they’re building, and how Colorado’s unique combination of research institutions, open-access facilities, talent pipelines, and collaborative culture makes this ecosystem one of the most promising in the country — and increasingly self-sustaining.
Key topics we’ll cover:- The different segments of Colorado’s quantum industry and key players in each
- What our community does exceptionally well, and where there’s room to grow
- How startups, researchers, investors, and workforce programs work together to keep innovation flowing
- Opportunities for attendees to plug in, collaborate, and help strengthen the cluster
Whether you’re new to Colorado or deeply involved in the ecosystem, you’ll leave with a clearer understanding of what makes Colorado’s quantum scene tick — and how you can be part of it.
