Looking back on a fantastic time at AQC 2026! ⚛️❄️ The Zero Point Cryogenics team had a great time connecting with peers and leaders across the quantum ecosystem, especially our partners and hosts, @QuantumQM. Being surrounded by the innovators our systems are built for is always a great reminder that reliable cryogenics is the physical foundation that helps make the quantum future possible. We were proud to exhibit alongside quantum innovators and deeply value the new connections and collaborative discussions sparked throughout the week. A sincere thank you to Quantum Machines for putting on an exceptional event. Here are a few photo highlights from the floor. Looking sharp, Joel Duthie and Eric Daigle!

Zero Point Cryogenics is exhibiting at AQC 2026! 🌇 We’re thrilled to be heading to Chicago next week to exhibit at the Adaptive Quantum Circuits (AQC) 2026 conference! This city holds a new personal meaning for the ZPC team since opening up our first international Innovation and Service Hub at the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park (IQMP) earlier this year. We can’t wait to immerse ourselves in the latest quantum hardware developments and reconnect with the quantum ecosystem. If you’re attending AQC 2026, make sure to stop by Booth #605! #AQC #AdaptiveQuantumCircuits #ColderForLonger #QuantumComputing #Cryogenics #ZeroPointCryogenics #ZPC

This week, Chris Cassin and David Lang are making the quick trip down from Edmonton to Calgary for qConnect 2026! Whether you want to talk sub-kelvin cryogenic systems or the evolving quantum landscape across Alberta and beyond, they would love to connect. See you in Calgary! 🤝❄️ #qConnect #ColderForLonger #QuantumComputing #Cryogenics #ZeroPointCryogenics #ZPC

Canadians have a much shorter commute to helium-3 than most: we already produce this rare resource at Darlington, just outside Toronto! At Zero Point Cryogenics, we build the ultra-cold systems for quantum technology. Cryogenic infrastructure is the engine for quantum, and helium-3 is the fuel.  In Chris Cassin's latest Financial Post op-ed, he explains the importance of Canada's helium-3 and how we can use it to build a powerful quantum supply chain. 🔗Read the full piece: financialpost.com/news/econo…

There is no step-by-step guide for building a deep tech company, but sharing lessons learned can make the journey clearer for everyone. 💡 This week at #EdmontonStartupWeek, our Co-Founder & CTO, Dr. John P. Davis, took the stage at @EdmontonUnltd for the "Building Deep Tech Companies" panel. Alongside fellow founders and ecosystem leaders, Dr. Ryan Tucker of @G2VOptics and Jalene Anderson-Baron of @futurefieldsHQ, John shared real-world insights on what it takes to bring breakthrough research out of the lab and scale a deep-tech company from right here in Alberta. A big thank you to moderator Tiffany Linke-Boyko of @flyingfishvc! Events like this create valuable spaces for founders, innovators, and big thinkers to come together, exchange wisdom, and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs.🔬 #DeepTech #EdmontonStartupWeek #YEGtech #ColderForLonger #QuantumComputing #Cryogenics #ZeroPointCryogenics #ZPC #MadeInCanada

⌛Physics Friday⏳ Do you know how microscopic tardigrades can survive temperatures just one degree above absolute zero? 🐻 Tardigrades (or "water bears") are famous for surviving the vacuum of space, crushing pressures, and temperatures as low as -272°C (1 kelvin). Normally, when a living organism freezes, water inside its cells expands into sharp ice structures that puncture cell membranes and destroy vital tissues. Tardigrades avoid this fate through a process called vitrification, which turns their insides into glass! When exposed to extreme cold, tardigrades pause their biological activity, expel almost all the water from their bodies, and produce specialized flexible proteins. Instead of sharp ice crystals forming, these proteins turn the tardigrade's insides into a protective glass. Once warmed up, the glass melts back into liquid, and the tardigrade goes right back to normal! #PhysicsFriday #Tardigrades #Biophysics #Vitrification #Cryogenics #AbsoluteZero #PhaseTransition #MaterialsScience #Physics
