A hundred years since the birth of quantum mechanics — and after more than 40 years of MIT leadership in quantum computing, sensing, and communication — the field is at an inflection point, ready to translate quantum science and technology into practical applications. This webinar, presented by the MIT Industrial Liaison Program (ILP) brings together MIT faculty and innovators driving this transformation, exploring how the field is evolving from fundamental research to scalable, commercially viable systems.

Today’s most innovative fabrication environments operate with fragmented data standards, siloed process knowledge, and complex, often manual, workflows that slow iteration, limit the efficiency of technology development, and ultimately increase time from innovation to market. FabuBlox, a 2024 MIT spinout and START.nano participant, addresses these challenges by providing a cloud-native process design, emulation, and team data-management platform. In 2026, FabuBlox will introduce Facility Portals, a major product expansion that will serve as the foundation for digital twins of high-flexibility fabrication facilities on FabuBlox.
