Colorado Quantum Tech Park Receives $63 Million Support

The Quantum Tech Park in Arvada, Colorado, is set to receive $63 million in federal and state funding to establish a leading quantum technology hub, anticipated to create 10,000 jobs by 2030. The Colorado School of Mines has purchased a 70-acre site for approximately $14 million, which will be developed into Quantum COmmons @ Arvada in collaboration with the Elevate Quantum consortium. This initiative, part of a broader Tech Hub effort supported by the U.S. Department of Commerce, aims to position Colorado as a global leader in quantum technology. With a focus on fostering innovation and entrepreneurship, local leaders assert that the region could mirror Silicon Valley's success in high-tech industries. The lab and fabrication facility is expected to be operational within 12 to 18 months, leveraging significant federal and state investments to advance quantum research and development. Governor Jared Polis emphasized the importance of this project for Colorado's economic future and leadership in emerging technologies.
