Happy World Quantum Day from a few members of Team Qlocity.

From Einstein’s theories… to quantum ex*****on.

Captured this moment at
Garner Holt Education Through Imagination a reminder that what was once abstract is now becoming real.

At , we’re focused on turning foundational science into workforce, infrastructure, and opportunity.

The baton has been passed.
Now it’s on us to build.

Today, we go public.

the global quantum commercialization firm has partnered with JLL to develop a Quantum Campus in the Southeastern United States.

Global quantum investment is projected to surge from $2B to $50B. The Southeast is about to be at the center of that movement.

will lead development and operate the hub-and-spoke model, connecting research, workforce, and industry to drive real-world quantum deployment.

We didn’t wait for an invitation.

We built the table.

Site selection is underway. More to come.

Big conversations. Real alignment. Ex*****on mode.

Had the opportunity to sit down with the team at Friendship Public Charter School in Washington, DC as we continue building out the CREATE Academy × Friendship partnership. Thank you Clarence Cross III and Brett Gotlib for our vision session!

What’s clear, this isn’t just another program. This is about building a true pipeline from education → workforce → ownership.

We’re aligning around:
• Early exposure (Grades 6–12) through immersive, hands-on innovation
• Direct pathways into STEM, media, and advanced tech ecosystems
• Workforce readiness that actually leads to jobs—not just training
• A long-term bridge from Friendship → CSUSB → industry

Phase 1 is already moving, Summer Residential Camp 2026 pilot, student cohorts, and workforce pathways being stood up in real time.

This is what it looks like when education, industry, and infrastructure move together, not in silos.

Appreciate the leadership and vision from the Friendship team.
We’re not building programs… we’re building systems that last.
