BERKELEY — As the world’s innovation hub, California continues to lead. Today, Governor Gavin Newsom signed two pieces of legislation into law and announced new funding to help maintain California’s ongoing dominance in emerging technologies that are fueling our future. The bills and new funding will advance California’s dominance in quantum and fusion technologies, helping to ensure the state continues to produce a strong talent pipeline, foster new research and development, and create opportunities for these technologies of the future to grow in regions throughout the state.
