Colorado Innovators: Carl Williams, Principal CEO at CJW Quantum Consulting

In this episode of The Bear Roars, Dan sits down with Dr. Carl Williams—former Director of the NIST Quantum Information Program and founder of CJW Quantum Consulting—for an in-depth conversation on the past, present, and future of quantum technology.

Carl shares stories from more than three decades at the forefront of quantum science, including his role in launching the U.S. quantum initiative, working alongside Nobel Prize-winning researchers, and helping establish Boulder as one of the world’s leading quantum hubs.

Together, he and Dan break down the fundamentals of quantum mechanics—from entanglement and quantum teleportation to Bose-Einstein condensates and neutral atoms—and explain how these discoveries are shaping the next generation of computing.
