De Masi’s message: quantum is here, delivering commercial advantage today and setting the stage for a future where IonQ is the undisputed heavyweight.

I’m excited to share Microchip Technology Inc.'s groundbreaking technology: SkyWire™ integrated into the BlueSky™ GNSS Firewall 2200, delivering nanosecond-precision clock alignment across global networks. Kudos to our development team, whose innovative brilliance made this possible! SkyWire enables critical infrastructure operators (data centers, communications, power utilities, financial systems, and more) compare their network timing with Coordinated Universal Time [UTC(k)] for unmatched accuracy and traceability. Paired with our TimePictra® software suite, it ensures industries like air traffic control, mobile telecommunications and transportation achieve reliable, scalable timing solutions, over distances of national scale. Discover how our team’s expertise is redefining precision timing:  https://lnkd.in/eTUNhTRH #SkyWire #MicrochipTechnology #CriticalInfrastructure

Satellite-based quantum communications are no longer speculative. They are shaping the contours of secure global connectivity. https://hubs.li/Q03P066L0 Written by John Prisco of Safe Quantum Inc.

IonQ just made a bold move, by acquiring Vector Atomic, specialists in quantum sensors, clocks, and navigation, bringing onboard 29 patents and over $200M in government contracts. This deal isn’t just expansion; it's IonQ becoming the only quantum firm with full-spectrum capabilities across compute, networking, and sensing. This acquisition isn’t just about growth; it’s about reshaping the future of quantum for government missions. 👉 Read more - https://lnkd.in/gB_fzvRs _______ #QuantumTechnology #IonQ

Kevin Spalding had a great time at the Emergency Services and Emergency Tech Shows last month. These events showcased the world of emergency technology, ranging from AI-driven response systems, data analytics, advanced communication networks, workflows, drone technologies to sophisticated mobile apps and software, and much more. How do IoTAS fit into this area? 🤔 ✅ We've been increasing our involvement in the Mission Critical space, and we're actively involved in the Global Certification Forum (GCF) / TCCA-Critical Communications joint task force for the development of MCX Test cases. ✅ Alongside this work, we've also extended our UKAS Accreditation at IoTAS Testing Laboratory No. 7619 to cover MCX test cases. ✅ We can perform Mission Critical testing against the 3GPP TS.11 Annex N Detailed Test Procedures for Mission Critical services It was great to see a number of our existing customers at this event and well as meeting some new industry colleagues including Exponential-e Group, Vysiion Limited, Pocketalk, S2S Group, Kasm Technologies, TASSTA and IBM. If you are moving into the cellular 3GPP space and need support with testing and certification services, then please don’t hesitate to get in touch... with our involvement in the GCF / TCCA taskforce we are in a great position to support your requirements! #EmergencyTechShow

🔹 Quantum Meets Perception, and the Race Just Changed! When IonQ announced it was acquiring Vector Atomic, most saw a corporate deal. What actually happened was the birth of a new layer in quantum infrastructure: sensing. Vector Atomic brings 29 patents in atomic clocks, navigation, and quantum sensors. That means IonQ no longer just “computes”… but now it also perceives. 💡 Foresight Insight: The quantum race isn’t about faster qubits, it’s about smarter systems that interpret the world. 💰 Wealth Move: Those who understand quantum perception are entering the early Internet of Quantum Things (IoQT). Which company is next to follow this sensing pivot? #quantumcomputing #deeptech

The F4E Technology Transfer Demonstrator Call has a winner! 🥇 Our jury has selected the project by Axon' Cable Group. The French company will receive 50.000€ to make their innovative idea a reality. The plan is to adapt a cable developed for remote handling in #ITER to other extreme environments like space or particle accelerators. With F4E’s support, Axon’ Cable will upgrade their cable to make it even more resistant and take it from fusion to new markets. Read how they will do it 👉 https://t.ly/BirQv The Demonstrator Call is supported by the European Commission and implemented in collaboration with EUROfusion and Viromii brokers. #UnleashFusionTech #TechTransfer #Innovation #Technology #FusionEnergy
