The Superposition Guy's Podcast

Aharon Brodutch and Ilia Khait, co-founders of Entangled Networks, a company building an optical interconnect between QPUs are interviewed by Yuval Boger. Aharon, Ilia and Yuval talk about the efforts required to scale up quantum processors, their optimizing compiler, building a distributed quantum computer, and much more.

Shai Machnes, CEO of Qruise, a company developing a machine-learning physicist, which is software that can automate the work of physicists building quantum computers, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Shai and Yuval talk about the genesis of his company, the repetitive tasks that their software can automate, how smart the software can become, and much more.

Wil Oxford, founder and CEO of Anametric, a company developing new technologies for chip-scale quantum photonics, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Wil and Yuval spoke about Anametric's initial cybersecurity focus, why QKD is not a popular word in Washington DC, why the US Air Force is interested in Anametric's products and much more.

Noel Goddard, CEO of Qunnect, a hardware company working to transform standard telecom networks into quantum secure communication networks is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Noel and Yuval spoke about 1st and 2nd-generation quantum secure networks, what one would need to do to create a secure link between Chicago and New York, the intersection of physics and telecom network engineering, and much more.

Théau Peronnin, CEO and co-founder of Alice and Bob, a company making fault-tolerant quantum computers using cat qubits is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Théau and Yuval talk about what cat qubits are, why they protect against bit-flip errors, the kind of software that will be required to take advantage of these new machines, and much more.

Prof. Peter Kogge from Notre Dame, Prof. Gerardo Ortiz from Indiana University and Dr. David Stewart, managing director of the Purdue quantum science and engineering institute are interviewed by Yuval Boger. They talk about the new Center for Quantum Technologies, a multi-site NSF-funded research center, which commercial sponsors are participating in the center and what they expect to get from it, the diverse faculty and students that participate in quantum research and much more.

Daniel Volz, co-founder and CEO of Kipu Quantum, a software company working to accelerate the delivery of quantum advantage is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Daniel and Yuval talk about what Daniel learned about quantum at McKinsey and BASF, their optimized approach to quantum algorithms, the expected timescale for quantum advantage and much more.

Alex Keesling, CEO, and Nate Gemelke, CTO of QuEra, a company building quantum computers based on neutral atoms with a unique analog quantum computation mode, are interviewed by Yuval Boger. Alex, Nate, and Yuval discuss why QuEra chose a different path toward universal, fault-tolerant quantum computers, the significance of recent qubit shuttling experiments, what they learned from the Amazon Braket integration, and much more.

Sabrina Maniscalco, co-founder and CEO of Algorithmiq, a company that is bringing quantum to life and to life sciences is interviewed by Yuval Boger. They talk about Algorithmiq’s approach to achieving quantum advantage for life science applications using NISQ-era gate-based machines, her prediction for when quantum advantage will be achieved, the journey from Sicilia to Finland, and much more.

Pierre Desjardins, co-founder and CEO of C12 Quantum Electronics, a company using carbon nanotubes to create a new quantum architecture, is interviewed by Yuval Boger. Pierre and Yuval talk about C12's unique technology, what carbon nanotubes are, designing custom application-specific quantum chips, and much more.
