Quantum Tech Pod

Chris Bishop’s latest Quantum Tech Pod with Eric Holland, Director, Strategic Growth Initiatives, Quantum Engineering Solutions at Keysight Technologies is live! Eric grew up in a small town in New Hampshire and after getting a PhD in physics from Yale, worked as Fermilab’s Deputy Director of Quantum Technology as well as Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s Chief Quantum Hardware & Application Architect. Keysight’s Quantum Control System (QCS) is described as the world’s first fully digital quantum control solution. We talked about what Bill and Dave might think of their company leading the way in quantum engineering solutions! Check out the conversation. #quantum #Keysight #quantumcontrolsystems #QCS

Chris Bishop's latest Quantum Tech Pod with Richard Murray, Co-Founder and CEO of ORCA Computing is live. His parents were science teachers who inspired hi to study math and physics. After receiving his PhD in coherent quantum comtrol of cold Rubidium atoms, Richard worked in the private sector--helped Oakley look at using nano structures to polarize their sunglasses! He led Innovate UK's £32 million program focused on quantum technologies, but had always wanted to start a company.  So, in 2019, Richard co-founded ORCA Computing. His distinguished team identified that short-term quantum memories could synchronize photonic operations, performing what is known as "spectral multiplexing."

Chris Bishop’s latest Quantum Tech Pod with Steve Brierley, CEO/Founder, Riverlane is live! Steve founded the company in 2016, based on his passionate belief that fault tolerant quantum computers will accelerate a significant era of human progress and could be developed sooner than previously imagined. His company is building Deltaflow.OS – the operating system for error-corrected quantum computers. Innovate UK has provided £500k to explore using syndrome extraction (additional qubits) on superconducting quantum computers to develop error correction techniques. Riverlane will be presenting “Beyond NISQ: Defining the roadmap to error-corrected quantum computers” at IEEE Quantum Week next week.

Chris Bishop’s latest Quantum Tech Pod with Nick Farina, CEO of EeroQ Quantum Hardware is live! Nick was a caddy at the Biltmore and then became a financial and tech journalist. He also started three companies. EeroQ Quantum Hardware is building a universal quantum computer by trapping and controlling individual electrons floating above pools of superfluid helium. Their ultimate goal: a large-scale quantum computer based on the magnetic (spin) state of these trapped electrons. Plus – they just announced a $7.25 million seed funding round!

Chris Bishop’s latest Quantum Tech Pod provides expert insight in a group conversation with three amazing guests: whurley, CEO, Strangeworks; Ilana Wisby, CEO, Oxford Quantum Circuits and Morgan Polotan, Senior Principal, B Capital Group. The topic: “How to do due diligence on a quantum company.”  Topics include balancing conflicting information, managing LP expectations about ROI, importance of partnerships and government investment and the need for reverse due diligence to make sure the VC is the right partner for your journey.

Chris Bishop on Quantum Tech Pod with Corban Tillemann-Dick, Founder/CEO, Maybell Quantum Industries is live! Before Maybell, Corban spent 10 years at Boston Consulting Group (BCG) where he led Quantum Computing efforts. Working with many leading-edge players led him to believe that quantum was going to be as important to the next 60 years as integrated circuits have been for the past 60 years and he didn’t want to be on the outside. He left BCG and co-founded Maybell to make a revolutionary dilution refrigerator called The Icebox as well as a high-density wiring solution called Maybell Flexlines.

Chris Bishop's Quantum Tech Pod with Timothy Costa, Director, HPC & Quantum Computing Product at NVIDIA is live! Tim was an #HPC application engineer at Intel before joining NVIDIA where he discovered that he enjoyed the role of product manager and that led to his current role. We discussed the recently announced  Quantum Optimized Device Architecture (#QODA), an open, unified environment for today’s most powerful computers and quantum processors. NVIDIA already has an impressive list of hardware, software, and supercomputing partners.

(QuantumTechPod) Chris Bishop's Quantum Tech Pod with Per Nyberg, VP, Strategic Markets and Alliances at Quantum Machines is live! Per grew up in Montreal, spent 12 years at NEC Corporation then joined Cray Inc. running all industry verticals. A year ago, QM came knocking. Per is delighted to be part of an industry “being born in front of our eyes.” Their Quantum Orchestration Platform (QOP) is the first hybrid architecture designed for quantum control, allowing for real-time decision-making with extreme ease and speed. Check out the conversation.

(QuantumTechPod) Chris Bishop's Quantum Tech Pod with Denis Mandich, CTO of Qrypt is live! Denis was born in Croatia and then was a refugee in Austria waiting for asylum in the US. Always interested in science, he studied string theory and quantum mechanics and was recruited by the intelligence community where he spent 20 years. The rise of quantum computers along with visibility into the scale of data theft from the US by foreign governments led him to start Qrypt to provide clients with “everlasting encryption.”

(QuantumTechPod) Chris Bishop's Quantum Tech Pod w/Georges-Olivier REYMOND, Pasqal CEO is live! PASQAL is the first French company to develop quantum computing hardware and their roadmap gets them to 1000 qubits by the end of 2023. The recent merger with Qu & Co allows them to provide a turnkey system - hardware and software together – accelerating the achievement of quantum advantage enabling practical real-world applications. They are also partnering with Atos to develop hybrid #HPC and quantum solutions. And their system will be available on Azure - Microsoft's Cloud Computing Platform later this year.
