Infleqtion

Infleqtion, Inc. (NYSE: INFQ) is a full-stack quantum technology company that develops and commercializes neutral atom-based hardware and complementary software for computing, sensing, and security applications. The company originated as ColdQuanta, which was founded in 2007 by Dr. Dana Anderson as a spin-off from the University of Colorado, Boulder. Dr. Anderson, a professor of Physics and Engineering, based the company on his decades of research into cold atom physics and the manipulation of Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs), a state of matter created by cooling atoms to near absolute zero. The company's business model focuses on a vertically integrated approach, providing both the core quantum hardware and the software required to operate it. This strategy was significantly advanced in 2022 with the acquisition of Super.tech, a quantum software startup, which brought the Superstaq software platform into Infleqtion's portfolio. Following this acquisition, the company rebranded from ColdQuanta to Infleqtion to reflect its expanded, full-stack mission. In February 2026, Infleqtion became the first neutral-atom quantum company to go public, listing on the New York Stock Exchange after a SPAC merger that provided over $550 million in gross proceeds to accelerate its technology roadmap and market expansion. Infleqtion's product portfolio addresses several segments of the quantum market. Its hardware is based on neutral atom technology, which uses lasers to cool, trap, and manipulate atoms to perform quantum functions. Products include the 'Sqale' quantum processor for computation, 'Tiqker' optical atomic clocks for precision timing, quantum RF receivers for advanced spectrum sensing, and inertial sensors for navigation in GPS-denied environments. On the software side, the proprietary Superstaq platform is a hardware-agnostic compiler that optimizes quantum algorithms for execution on various quantum computers, demonstrating performance improvements of up to 10x compared to other compilers. The company serves a diverse client base across government and commercial sectors, including the U.S. Department of War, NASA, the U.K. government, and enterprises in aerospace, defense, energy, finance, and telecommunications.
