Quantum Tech Pod Episode 76: Julien Camirand Lemyre, Nord Quantique CEO and Co-Founder
Wednesday, September 4, 2024 âą Duration 23:07
The latest Quantum Tech Pod with Julien Camirand Lemyre, CEO and Co-founder, Nord Quantique is live!
Julian was born in a small town in Quebec called Sutton â a very beautiful environment where he got to a lot of stuff like skiing!
He has a PhD in Experimental quantum computation from the University of Sherbrooke and conducted research on fabricating devices for improved quantum computing performance. Julian and his co-founder, Philippe St-Jean, met through their mutual interest in quantum computing and started Nord Quantique in 2020.
The key differentiator of Nord Quantique's technology is their approach to quantum error correction using bosonic codes. They use superconducting circuits and leverage the intrinsic redundancy of photon states to create error-corrected qubits. This bosonic code approach allows them to correct errors at the individual qubit level, without needing many physical replicas of qubits.
Nord Quantique is currently working with OTI Lumionics, a company that develops LEDs, to test new quantum computing applications for materials science.
Julien believes that in 10 years we'll reach a point where fault tolerant quantum computers are sufficiently powerful to be used within an increasingly larger subset of industry processes.

Quantum Tech Pod Episode 75: Algorithmiq CEO & Co-Founder, Sabrina Maniscalco
Wednesday, July 17, 2024 âą Duration 38:58
My latest Quantum Tech Pod with Sabrina Maniscalco â CEO and co-founder, Algorithmiq, is live!
Sabrina grew up in a small town called Mazzara, in southwestern Sicily, facing Africa.
Two years before she went to university, she got a telescope as a birthday present and started to observe the stars and read about how galaxies are formed. This is what started her passion for quantum physics!
Sabrina has held research and post-doctoral positions in many places around the world including South Africa, Bulgaria, Vienna, Germany, and eventually Finland.
She co-founded Algorithmic in 2020 while a professor of quantum information, computing and logic at the University of Helsinkiâ where she still teaches.
Algorithmic is developing advanced quantum algorithms that run on near-term quantum devices to enable the discovery of new drugs and the development of new materials.
Working with IBM Quantum and the Cleveland Clinic, they are creating a hybrid quantum and classical solution to help choose and optimize the properties of photosensitizers used in photodynamic therapy for curing cancer. A patient is administered a photosynthesizing drug which is not in an active form. Once absorbed by the cells, it is then activated locally by light irradiation.
Worth noting that the World Economic Forum recently announced the selection of Algorithmic as one of this year's 100 companies that will be joining its technology pioneers initiative.

At Dell Research, Ken's current focus includes hybrid quantum computing, quantum-safe cryptography, as well as generative AI, human-machine interfaces, and heterogeneous computing acceleration and virtualization.
His take on the current state of quantum? âWe are in the ENIAC era. If you go back in computer history, there was a time when we used to have to write assembly language for computers!â
Ken is also Dell Researchâs representative to the World Economic Forum's Quantum Network, a global array of business leaders and practitioners focused on leveraging quantum technologies to address large-scale problems.
A recent collaboration between Dell and ASUâs Quantum Collaborative resulted in a certificate program called Quantum Technology for Executives and Leaders (QTEL) designed to help learners explore emerging applications of quantum information science and its potential to revolutionize academia, government, and industry. ASU is offering a discount until March 1st using this promo code - QTEL30OFF11731.

Quantum Tech Pod Episode 64: Kurt Stokbro, CEO, Sparrow Quantum
Wednesday, January 3, 2024 âą Duration 27:31
My latest Quantum Tech Pod episode with Kurt Stokbro, CEO of quantum company Sparrow Quantum is live!Â
Sparrow Quantum is a quantum photonics company based in Copenhagen, founded in 2016 by Professor Peter Lodahl. It is widely recognized as a leader in single photon sources, achieving the world's highest light matter coupling efficiency. Kurt is the CEO and is also a major investor in Sparrow Quantum.Â
Kurt grew up in a small town in Denmark and studied quantum mechanics at the Niels Bohr Institute, attending advanced quantum mechanics lectures given by Aage Bohr, one of Niels Bohrâs sons!
Sparrow Quantumâs flagship product is a deterministic single photon source, a superior alternative to probabilistic quantum emitters. When the photon is excited in the quantum dots, it only has one path to follow. Every time you trigger it, it will emit one photon, resulting in billions of indistinguishable photons per second. To do the same with probabilistic approaches would require millions of emitters.
Sparrow Quantum is a component provider and works with various partners. They recently initiated strategic relationships with photonic computing companies to include Sparrow Quantumâs solution in their system.

Christopher Bishopâs latest Quantum Tech Pod with Niels Bultink, CEO and Co-Founder of Qblox, a leading quantum company, is live!Â
Chris first spoke to Niels almost two years ago and wanted to check in to see what he and his team have been up to.
Qblox provides quantum control stacks that combine unequaled noise performance and low-latency arbitrary control flows and can be scaled up to support hundreds of qubits. They have delivered over 100 systems worldwide - in the US, Europe, and Asia. Recently, the company celebrated its five-year anniversary!Â
Topics they discussed included the 2.5 million euros in European Innovation Council transition funding that Qblox and SemiQon received in July - a clear indicator that this tech is actually bankable by subsidy instruments like the Council.Â
Chris and Niels also talked about the partnership with QuantrolOx announced in August. Leveraging its QuantumEdge software will enable the delivery of a more hands-off solution for the automation of superconducting qubits.
 Check out Chrisâs conversation with Niels!

Quantum Tech Pod Episode 60: QKD solutions with LuxQuanta CEO Vanesa Diaz
Wednesday, November 15, 2023 âą Duration 32:08
Christopher Bishopâs latest Quantum Tech Pod with Vanesa Diaz, CEO of quantum computing company LuxQuanta is live!
Vanesa grew up in a small village in the north of Spain and because she was good at math, she eventually got a degree in engineering.
Her early career found her in tech roles, but she wanted to spend less time in the lab and more time with customers and developing business strategies. So, she moved to Australia and got a Masterâs degree in marketing and business!
When she returned to Europe, she landed a job at Corning, where she worked for over a decade. She has also worked at RYMSA and Vodaphone.
Her company LuxQuanta was formed in May 2021 as a spin-off from The Institute of Photonic Sciences where it was incubated for over four years.
LuxQuanta delivers Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) systems that can be integrated into existing network infrastructures to provide a quantum-safe layer of security on top of mathematical cryptographic techniques.
Her advice to women interested in working in quantum: âThe tech industry is still very male-dominated, and it is normal to fear that you might not be able to do something new or challenging. Surround yourself with the right support â from mentors to supervisors. And donât be afraid to fight for it!â
