“Some funding” actually is mentioned in the PR:
“ QPICs is currently establishing rapid turnkey fabrication of photonic devices at Colorado's Elevate Quantum facilities which are being established with over $160 million in funding in partnership with the US Department of Commerce's Tech Hub initiative, the State of Colorado, and the State of New Mexico.”

Serious government investment.

AND guess who did the fundraising for QUBT? Oh yeah, more than 3/4 of a billion dollars by Titan? Remember how Titan did a small raise for a lot lower money for QUBT … and then the share price rose to 30+ (from just a couple bucks like our price right now) to where they did a massive raise?

I am not saying that because we need that kind of money raised. I am saying that because the same company (and same network of investors… much more importantly) that was behind QUBT we’re going to read all the dots here and they are also now vested in this little company of ours….

I mean, you couldn’t make this up if you were trying to write a story for us. There is a lot more going on here than ‘merely’ an additional vertical.

The Titan Effect in full gale force tail winds me thinks…

Best to the longs,

F2.

Purple, exactly, here from Gemini, Yesterday was a massive day for Lightwave Logic (LWLG) news regarding their Colorado partnerships.

On January 15, 2026, LWLG officially announced a partnership with QPICs (the Colorado-based quantum foundry). This is a strategic move to integrate LWLG's polymer technology into the quantum computing and sensing markets.


Regarding your question on "salable products," here is the current timeline and expectation based on this week’s announcements:

1. The QPIC Partnership (Quantum Market)
The agreement signed yesterday is a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to develop a Process Design Kit (PDK).

Purpose: A PDK is essentially a "instruction manual" for engineers. It allows quantum computing customers to design chips that use LWLG’s polymers and then have those chips "printed" at the QPIC foundry in Boulder.

Expectation of Product: This is an infrastructure play. Salable chips from this specific partnership are likely 12 to 18 months away, as customers first need the PDK to finish their designs before they can place volume orders.

2. The Fortune 500 Partners (Data Center Market)
The more immediate "salable product" expectation comes from LWLG's two unnamed Fortune Global 500 partners, who are further along the design cycle than the new QPIC deal.

Stage 3 Milestones: Throughout the first half of 2026, LWLG is building and testing actual Silicon Photonics chips with these partners.

Commercial Launch: If the 2026 testing milestones (yield and reliability) are met, formal product launch decisions by these partners are expected in late 2026 or early 2027.

3. Recent Financial Boost
To bridge the gap to these salable products, LWLG closed a $35 million public offering in December 2025. They now have approximately $70 million in cash, which they stated gives them a 24–30 month runway to reach volume production without needing more money.

My initial search linked the Arizona foundry to QBITs. This morning I see that is no longer the case. Thanks for clarifying ownership. It pays to check search information a few times before accepting the initial result.
