The Westchester County Office of Economic Development, in partnership with the New York City Economic Development Corporation, established a Quantum Consortium in 2023, and has since established four working groups: Ecosystem Building, End User Adoption, Government Relations and Workforce Development/Talent Pipeline. More than 100 members, representing more than 50 organizations across New York State have joined this group to help develop and implement a strategy for quantom science and technology (QIST) job growth. See the statewide Consortium map here: NYS QIS Ecosystem Map. If your organization works in quantum but is missing from this map, let us know!

Among the QUANTUM Consortium’s goals, are:


  • Establish New York as THE U.S. leader in quantum technologies;
  • Help NY State become the center of manufacturing for the quantum industry;
  • Develop and implement a comprehensive strategy that ensures quantum information science and technology (QIST) jobs will start, grow, and remain in the state;
  • Strengthen the STEM education infrastructure, from K to career; and,
  • Develop QIST workforce development plans that embrace equity and diversity.
