Xairos Makes Waves Across the Global Quantum Timing Community

From keynote stages to podcast studios, Xairos is making the case for quantum + optical timing — and the world is listening.

ARVADA, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Quantum timing is no longer a lab curiosity. Over the past year, Xairos stepped into the spotlight at nine conferences across timing, navigation, and deep tech — and the conversations that followed made it clear: the world is ready for what Xairos is building.

The team brought its research on free-space optical systems and quantum time transfer to stages around the globe. At Nemertes [NEXT], the technology research and advisory conference, the presentation “Accurate, Secure Alternative to GPS Using Quantum Timing” brought quantum timing directly to the commercial user community. The European Navigation Conference hosted “Deploying a Space Based Quantum Secure Time Synchronisation Architecture,” while the Quantum Security Defence Community Platform heard “Quantum Time Transfer for Resilient PNT Applications” and ION GNSS+ featured “Quantum Time Transfer with Entangled Photons.” The Workshop on Synchronization and Timing Systems took on “Challenges of Free-Space Quantum + Optical Systems” and “Challenges of Free-Space Quantum and Optical Time Transfer,” and the International Timing and Sync Forum showcased the poster “Advancements in Quantum + Optical Hardware” — with “Quantum Time Transfer for Resilient Telecommunications Networks” at the Annual ScyLight Conference and “Quantum + Optical Systems for Secure PNT and Communications” at IEEE RAPID 2026 still ahead on the calendar.

“These are exciting times for Xairos as we press ahead with both our terrestrial and space-based quantum time transfer systems. It is always a privilege to represent the company at international conferences — to share our latest results, strengthen collaborations, and engage with the pioneers driving innovation across the quantum, timing, and optical industries.”
— Dr. Carlo Page, UK General Manager, Xairos UK Ltd.

Beyond the stage, Xairos has been making the rounds in media. The team joined Kratos Constellations and Tech Leader Talk for in-depth conversations on entangled photon systems and the future of secure PNT, and sat down with Voices of Colorado Manufacturing to talk about bringing quantum timing from the lab to the launchpad. The Financial Times quoted Xairos in “Inside the Battle to Protect Time” — a sign that the broader world is paying close attention.

For those who want to go further, Xairos has developed white papers on The Quantum Revolution Demystified, Quantum for PNT, Quantum Time Transfer, and Quantum Satellites. Contact [e-mail] to request a copy or learn more.
