The Bristol and Bath region is a global centre of excellence
for quantum technologies. As the host of the UK Technology Hub for Quantum
Communications Technologies at the University of Bristol (see below) the region is developing a range of quantum
technologies from sensors to security for communications systems in the
Internet of Things and smart cities.
The University also hosts a world leading Quantum Photonics
research group, and a Doctoral Centre for Quantum technologies that generates
new startups every year. Stories on the local quantum startups are on TechSpark
news hub below.
The world’s first quantum photonics chip was developed in
the city and is now on show at the UK’s Science Museum. While super-cooled general purpose quantum computers are being developed, the room temperature quantum photonics technology, based on standard CMOS technology, can be used for a wide range of sensing and security applications.
National and international companies have a number of ways
to tap into the skill base in the region. The Quantum lab is keen to work with
companies looking to use quantum technologies in future products. The Invest In
Bristol and Bath (IBB) agency can help companies looking to seamlessly set up
research and development groups in the region to tap into the local expertise
and help with future expansion.
For more technology activity please contact Nick Flaherty.
Companies looking at options to set up in Bristol and bath, or wanting to make use of the research please contact John Bradford for support
in an introduction to IBB.
