Xairos showcased its quantum‑plus‑optical timing technology at nine high‑profile events over the past year, targeting commercial users in finance, telecom, energy and defence. The outreach signals the company’s push to move quantum time transfer from research labs to operational services.
Xairos Presents Quantum Timing Across Multiple Forums
Xairos delivered presentations and posters at a range of venues, including Nemertes [NEXT] (“Accurate, Secure Alternative to GPS Using Quantum Timing”), the European Navigation Conference (“Deploying a Space Based Quantum Secure Time Synchronisation Architecture”), the Quantum Security Defence Community Platform (“Quantum Time Transfer for Resilient PNT Applications”), ION GNSS+ (“Quantum Time Transfer with Entangled Photons”), the Workshop on Synchronization and Timing Systems (sessions on “Challenges of Free‑Space Quantum + Optical Systems” and “Challenges of Free‑Space Quantum and Optical Time Transfer”), the International Timing and Sync Forum (poster “Advancements in Quantum + Optical Hardware”), the Annual ScyLight Conference (“Quantum Time Transfer for Resilient Telecommunications Networks”), and an upcoming IEEE RAPID 2026 session (“Quantum + Optical Systems for Secure PNT and Communications”).
Dr. Carlo Page, UK General Manager of Xairos UK Ltd., said the company is “pressing ahead with both our terrestrial and space‑based quantum time transfer systems” and values the opportunity to share results and strengthen collaborations at these gatherings.
Media Appearances Extend the Message
Beyond conference stages, Xairos appeared on Kratos Constellations and Tech Leader Talk podcasts to discuss entangled‑photon systems and secure positioning‑navigation‑timing (PNT). The firm also joined Voices of Colorado Manufacturing to explain how quantum timing moves from laboratory to launchpad. The Financial Times quoted Xairos in an article titled “Inside the Battle to Protect Time,” indicating broader media interest.

Key Takeaways
- Xairos presented quantum timing content at nine conferences, including Nemertes [NEXT] and the European Navigation Conference, within the past year.
- The company’s UK General Manager, Dr. Carlo Page, emphasized ongoing development of terrestrial and space‑based quantum time transfer systems.
- Xairos has produced four white papers on quantum timing and invites inquiries via [email protected].
TechInsyte's Take
Xairos is actively positioning quantum time transfer as a commercial alternative to GNSS‑based timing, a move that could interest enterprises reliant on precise, secure timestamps. Buyers should monitor the upcoming IEEE RAPID 2026 session for technical updates and watch for any pilot deployments that demonstrate real‑world resilience.
