Chicago Quantum Exchange Information

The Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE) is an intellectual hub in the Midwest that connects leading universities, national labs, and industry partners to advance the science and engineering of quantum information, train the future quantum workforce, and drive the quantum economy. The recipient of millions of dollars in government and corporate investment and home to some of the world’s top experts in the field, the CQE community is a central driver of US leadership in quantum technologies. The CQE is based at the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and anchored by the University of Chicago, the US Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory and Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, the University of Wisconsin–Madison, Northwestern University, and Purdue University. Our community includes more than 50 corporate, international, nonprofit, and regional partners and more than 210 researchers, and is one of the largest collaborative teams working on quantum science in the world. The full impact of quantum technology is beyond our imagination. It’s also within our reach.
