DARPA’s QBI Stage A: Stress‑Testing The Path To A Utility‑Scale Quantum Computer

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)‘s Multi X Office has expanded the Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) with a new Topic call, QBIT Stage A, aimed at one deceptively simple question: can any quantum architecture credibly reach a utility‑scale, fault‑tolerant machine by about 2033. QBI defines “utility‑scale” as a quantum computer whose computational value exceeds its cost,

DARPA’s Perrseus Program: Manufacturable µUHV for Quantum & Atomic Sensors

DARPA’s Perrseus Program: Manufacturable µUHV for Quantum & Atomic Sensors

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Perrseus program is now live with a formal solicitation, moving from concept to concrete timelines and technical expectations. The goal hasn’t changed: build manufacturable, microscale ultra‑high‑vacuum (µUHV) packages that can support next‑generation quantum, MEMS, and photonics‑based sensors without relying on room‑sized vacuum systems. With the solicitation out, teams

Building the $20M Quantum Factory: What NIST’s New Manufacturing Center Means for Innovators 

The federal government is no longer treating quantum as a distant research project. It is building out the industrial base needed to manufacture quantum systems at scale.  On June 28, 2026, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) announced an agreement with SRI International to establish the Quantum Manufacturing Engineering Center (QMEC). The center is focused on accelerating the
