Qblox Introduces First "Made in America" Quantum Control Systems

Qblox announced that effective April 1, in partnership with Prodrive Technologies, its products will be manufactured in the United States and will begin shipping to customers from its facility in Canton, Massachusetts. Building on the company's 2025 expansion into Boston and its growing collaborations with universities, government and industry partners, this milestone supports the American quantum ecosystem across innovation, workforce development and manufacturing. The shift to manufacturing quantum control systems in the U.S. brings advantages for customers, including reduced lead times, greater shipping efficiency, improved supply-chain security and stronger alignment with U.S. procurement, compliance and funding requirements. It enhances Qblox's ability to provide onshore support and service while advancing transparent, open-architecture manufacturing that supports the Department of Energy and National Lab research. The Canton facility will support skilled technical roles across manufacturing, systems integration, logistics and customer support. Governor Maura Healey said Massachusetts is proud to be a global hub for quantum innovation and that Qblox's investment in manufacturing in Canton strengthens leadership in the technologies that will define the future. Economic Development Secretary Eric Paley said Massachusetts is where breakthrough technologies move from research to real-world deployment and that Qblox is strengthening domestic supply chains while tapping into the state's scientific talent, research institutions and advanced manufacturing capabilities. Niels Bultink, co-founder and CEO of Qblox, said building and shipping systems in the United States allows the company to be closer to the researchers, engineers and institutions driving quantum innovation forward. Pieter Janssen, co-founder and CEO at Prodrive Technologies, said advanced technologies like quantum control systems require precise manufacturing and trusted partnerships and that the companies are proud to work together to strengthen the quantum ecosystem and deliver the reliability, quality and scalability required. Gregg Carman, general manager and head of North America for Qblox, said quantum technology is strategic infrastructure and that manufacturing and shipping from the U.S. optimizes logistics and aligns with the long-term goals of American research institutions and the broader innovation economy.
