Investment firm Texas Quantum Partners and Texas real estate developer Samara have unveiled the architectural master plan and operational site details for Occam Foundry, a dedicated 16.5-acre quantum technology campus taking shape in southeastern Travis County, Austin. Earthwork is currently underway on the property, which is designed to co-locate university spinouts, startups, and operational hardware alongside full-scale semiconductor cleanroom fabrication and characterization suites.

Core Infrastructure & Fab Specialized R&D Labs Campus Commons & Admin
• The Fab (Full-Scale Cleanroom). • The Sensing & Networking Lab. • Milliways (Campus Commons).
• The Quantum Hub (Live Systems). • The Research Building. • The Headquarters.
• Prototyping & Characterization. • Multi-Disciplinary Workspaces. • Annual Conference Facilities.The campus architecture establishes an integrated deep-tech ecosystem spanning quantum computing, sensing, networking, and precision timing:
- Six-Building Campus Footprint: The initial phase comprises six purpose-built structures arranged around a shaded central walkway and reflecting pool: The Quantum Hub (housing an operational, live quantum computer), The Research Building, The Fab (a full-scale fabrication facility to produce designed chips on-site), The Sensing and Networking Lab, Milliways (the central commons and event space), and The Headquarters.
- Cross-Disciplinary Co-Location: The campus brings together four core verticals—quantum computing, precision sensing, secure networking, and atomic timing—allowing design teams to leverage shared physics and move designs from concept to working prototype without leaving the Central Texas corridor.
- State Policy Alignment: The development directly supports the Texas Quantum Initiative, established under House Bill 4751 in 2025 to fund state-level quantum real estate, hardware deployments, and research hubs across Texas universities and private enterprises.
- Strategic Logistics & Transport: Positioned in Travis County’s advanced manufacturing corridor, the site sits approximately 15 minutes from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and 25 minutes from downtown Austin.
