Qucor was delighted to be one of 20 companies world-wide selected to present at the Emerging NanoBusiness Showcase in Chicago in November 2005.

The Showcase was part of the NanoCommerce / SEMI NanoForum Conference, attracting wide representation from industry and investors, and was intended to present “the most revolutionary and innovative technologies, nano applications, commercialization strategies and business models emerging today”.

The capabilities we presented at the showcase are summarised in our "Extreme Nanotechnology" publication.

In December 2005, Qucor signed a Joint Venture Agreement to create Quantum Communications Victoria (QCV).

The joint venture includes the University of Melbourne, MagiQ Technologies Inc, and Silicon Graphics Pty Ltd, and was formed with significant cash support from the Victorian State Government to develop a prototype single photon source for absolutely secure data encryption systems.
