Quantum Machines is expanding its U.S. footprint by establishing a flagship R&D hub at the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park (IQMP) in Chicago, positioning the company at the center of a growing Midwestern quantum technology cluster. The company will initially operate from IQMP’s On-Ramp facilities while the 128-acre park is completed, deploying its OPX1000 hybrid quantum-classical controller in a state-of-the-art lab focused on hardware-control co-design for superconducting and spin-qubit systems. This move deepens Quantum Machines’ engagement with the regional ecosystem backed by the Illinois Economic Development Corporation, the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, and the Chicago Quantum Exchange, and provides access to shared infrastructure including cryostats, control electronics, lasers, and optical platforms.

Strategically, the new hub is intended to accelerate the development and scaling of fault-tolerant quantum computing by embedding Quantum Machines’ control-platform technology directly into a growing base of quantum hardware developers, many of whom already use its systems. The company is also partnering with IQMP and state agencies on workforce initiatives to build Illinois’ quantum talent pipeline and has selected Chicago as host city for the 2026 Adaptive Quantum Circuits conference, reinforcing its role as a convenor for industry and academic leaders. Quantum Machines’ existing partnership with future IQMP tenant Diraq on silicon-based quantum computers is expected to benefit from physical co-location, potentially shortening development cycles and strengthening commercial collaboration opportunities. For Quantum Machines, the Illinois hub expands market access, deepens U.S. government and institutional relationships, and supports long-term positioning as an enabling infrastructure provider for large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum systems.
