Vescent’s Vision for Quantum Tech: CEO Scott Davis Featured by NIST
From lab breakthrough to real-world impact.
Our CEO, Dr. Scott Davis, shares his journey from National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and JILA to co-founding Vescent—and how foundational government research is driving quantum innovation that will shape the future of clocks, computing, and communications.
In his new blog hosted by NIST, Scott reflects on:
🔹 How NIST’s atomic clock work led to GPS
🔹 A personal reflection on quantum uncertainty as both science & philosophy
🔹 The story behind Vescent’s ruggedized frequency combs
🔹 Why optical clocks may be the key to a post-GPS future
🔹 What’s next in quantum — and how we’re helping build it
