Elevate Quantum, in collaboration with Q-CTRL, QuantWare, Qblox, Maybell Quantum and Arrow Electronics, has announced the fully operational launch of the Quantum Platform for the Advancement of Commercialisation (Q-PAC) – marking the USA\u2019s first commercially deployable Quantum Open Architecture system and the fastest quantum infrastructure deployment completed in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The system, first announced in November 2025, advanced from concept to full operation in just five months and at a fraction of the cost compared to closed, full-stack systems – demonstrating a new, more effective model for the rapid deployment of sovereign quantum capability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the concept was introduced, Elevate Quantum and its partners completed an accelerated buildout of the system using the Quantum Utility Block (QUB) architecture, an open, modular and validated framework that enabled the team to stand up a fully functional quantum system at unprecedented speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rapid deployment confirms that QUB is now the fastest path to establish operational quantum infrastructure without multi-year development cycles and is readily available for procurement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The system is now live at Elevate Quantum\u2019s Commercialisation Lab on the Quantum Commons campus in Denver, Colorado, providing users with integrated access to a complete quantum computing stack, from quantum processors and control electronics to cryogenic infrastructure and advanced autocalibration and circuit optimisation software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cQ-PAC proves that the United States can deploy quantum systems at commercial velocity,\u201d said Elevate Quantum COO and CFO Jessi Olson. \u201cThis is not a research testbed. It is a fully reproducible, commercial-grade quantum system where companies can test-drive their quantum future before they build their own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The initial quantum processing unit launches with 17 qubits, with a clear upgrade path aligned to QuantWare\u2019s roadmap. The same platform will support 100-qubit-class processors heading into 2027, allowing supported Q-PAC use cases to scale without replacing infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Qblox\u2019s modular control electronics deliver high-fidelity connectivity to all QPU components, ensuring stable and precise operation across the system, while Maybell Quantum\u2019s cryogenic wiring and refrigeration infrastructure provide the robust ultra-low temperature environment needed for reliable performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Together, the hardware stack forms a transparent, open reference architecture that gives enterprise users full visibility into system components and behaviour, avoiding the \u2018black box\u2019 limitations of proprietary systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Q-CTRL\u2019s infrastructure software bridges the gap between raw hardware and the utility-scale problems industry needs to solve. Reliable operation is driven by Boulder Opal Scale-Up, which provides AI-driven automation for calibration and control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis initiative is set to attract new investment, generate high-skill jobs and accelerate the commercialisation of cutting-edge technology,\u201d said Eve Lieberman, Executive Director of the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With Q-PAC now operational, Elevate Quantum and its partners have delivered a new model for national quantum capability – one that is fast to deploy, open by design and built for commercial use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
