Infleqtion opened the Colorado Quantum Innovation Center in Louisville on Tuesday, establishing the company’s global headquarters and consolidating its quantum computing and sensing operations at a single site.
The 1315 W. Century Drive facility will house Infleqtion’s research, development, and commercial deployment activities, including systems already in use with the U.S. Department of Defense, NASA, and the UK Royal Navy. The company develops neutral-atom quantum solutions for computing, networking, sensing, and security, with applications spanning space, defense, energy, finance, and telecommunications.
The new center is located in the Boulder-Louisville-Broomfield corridor, an area that hosts more than 30 quantum-focused companies, national laboratories, research institutions, and academic organizations. The region’s quantum research heritage traces back to JILA, a joint institute of the University of Colorado Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, founded in 1962.
Infleqtion operates across the United States, Europe, and Asia, with its portfolio including quantum computers, quantum optical clocks, RF receivers, and inertial sensors. The company’s CEO, Matt Kinsella, emphasized the facility’s role in advancing national security and scientific discovery, noting that neutral-atom technology originated from research in Colorado.
Colorado Governor Jared Polis, U.S. Representative Brittany Pettersen, and Louisville Mayor Chris Leh attended the opening, marking the center’s role in fostering regional innovation and job creation.
