Mesa Quantum Inc.
Developing advanced chip-scale quantum sensing for next-generation position, navigation and timing capabilities.
The University of Colorado Connection
Venture Partners helped match a motivated grad student, Sristy Agrawal (, CU Boulder Mathematical Physics), with a novel atomic clock invented in Svenja Knappe’s lab (CU Boulder Paul M. Rady Mechanical Engineering). Mesa Quantum was first conceived in the NSF I-Corps™ Hub: West Region customer discovery programming offered at Venture Partners. Mesa Quantum is ushering in the next generation of chip-scale atomic clocks and quantum sensors, powering the industries of tomorrow in fields like autonomous vehicles and advanced deep-water oil exploration.
