Oxford Ionics, a leading quantum technology company, has chosen Boulder, Colorado as the site for its new North American headquarters. This strategic move represents a significant step in the company’s international expansion plans. Renowned physicist, Professor David Allcock, has been appointed as the Director of Science for North America to spearhead operations at the new office.
The decision to establish a presence in Boulder was motivated by the city’s vibrant quantum ecosystem and its proximity to a talented pool of professionals. Oxford Ionics will leverage the existing quantum activity in Boulder to drive innovation and collaborate with like-minded organizations. The recent Tech Hub Phase 2 grant awarded to Boulder by the U.S. Department of Commerce further validates the city as a thriving hub for technological advancement.
By setting up operations in Boulder, Oxford Ionics aims to tap into the local supply chain for quantum-related resources and utilize state-of-the-art facilities for research and development. Additionally, the strategic location will facilitate closer collaboration with key partners and prospective clients across North America.
