MANCHESTER – XMA Corporation was excited to welcome back New Hampshire Senator Maggie Hassan to their Manchester-based design and manufacturing headquarters. Senator Hassan was given a full tour of the facility, including their industry leading thin film lab.

During her visit, Senator Hassan was welcomed by top XMA leadership: Marc Smith, President and CEO; Peter Richard, General Manager; Mark Higgins, Director of Operations; and Del Pierson, Quantum Product Line Manager, and team. It was an honor to host a current New Hampshire Senator, former state Governor, and dedicated public servant to our Manchester manufacturing facility.

XMA has been a key partner for quantum developers as they scale up and enhance their technology. Reaching quantum advantage will unlock answers to many of today’s complex challenges, including online security, chemical simulation and drug discovery, traffic control, and weather forecasting.

“We take pride in our manufacturing facility, operations and team, and it was a privilege to share our contributions to quantum innovation with Senator Hassan,” said Peter Richard, General Manager, when asked of the visit. “We provided Senator Hassan with an update on our transformational growth and discussed current and future needs to continue to positively impact our local and national interests.”

“XMA is an innovative New Hampshire business that supports our national security and economy by helping quantum computing companies to expand their capabilities,” said Senator Hassan. “Today’s tour and discussion, as well as my visits last week with leading quantum experts, emphasized the urgent need to invest more in quantum research and development. Doing so will strengthen our national security, bolster our cyber defenses, and ensure that America remains on the cutting edge of innovation.”
