Niklas Zennström, co-founder of Skype and founder of Atomico, has joined the PsiQuantum Board of Directors, bringing extensive experience in scaling technology companies to the quantum computing field. Zennström succeeds Siraj Khaliq, marking a change in board representation following Atomico’s initial 2019 partnership with PsiQuantum. “PsiQuantum is taking on one of the most ambitious and important technology challenges of our time,” Zennström said, as the company rapidly builds its leadership team with recent appointments including Chief Executive Officer Victor Peng. PsiQuantum intends to pair technological breakthroughs with large-scale infrastructure in the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Zennström’s Appointment Reflects Atomico’s Long-Standing PsiQuantum Partnership This move signals a deepening commitment from Atomico, the venture capital firm Zennström founded in 2006, to PsiQuantum’s ambitious goal of building a fault-tolerant, utility-scale quantum computer. Atomico initially partnered with PsiQuantum in 2019, and Zennström’s subsequent appointment to the board demonstrates a sustained belief in the company’s technological approach and commercial potential. The transition on the board sees Zennström succeed Siraj Khaliq, a change that underscores the evolving relationship between PsiQuantum and Atomico over the past several years. “Atomico has partnered with the company for years and watched this team build technologies beyond the current standard,” said Zennström. “It is thrilling to see them now execute and scale.” This long-term investment strategy is further evidenced by a recent bolstering of PsiQuantum’s leadership team; in July, Victor Peng was permanently appointed Chief Executive Officer following his interim role since February, alongside the additions of Rob Soderbery and Sriram Sitaraman to executive positions. This rapid expansion of leadership coincides directly with Zennström’s arrival, suggesting a coordinated effort to accelerate the company’s progress. PsiQuantum’s strategy centers on leveraging existing semiconductor manufacturing processes to scale its silicon photonics platform, a departure from many other quantum computing approaches. This

Rohit Gupta is CEO of Aretum As a hard-core technologist with a Computer Science background as well as a Government Contracting Services CEO, I am fortunate to keep in touch with many emerging technologies being used in both commercial and government organizations. There are many areas of the Federal Government operational space that are using new technologies. If you exclude AI-based modernization advancements and fairly common ones like cloud computing, microservices, zero trust architecture and no/low-code platforms, I believe there are still a number of technology categories that are quietly changing how software delivery organizations, security teams, and mission-focused organizations operate. Public sector missions cover many areas including civilian government, defense, intelligence, public safety, and even critical infrastructure related to energy, water, and transportation, so the applicability of new technologies is fairly broad. Many areas outside of AI are driving significant investment because they improve the government agencies’ resilience, speed, compliance, and operational effectiveness, and save taxpayer money without sacrificing mission goals. Modernization is really the common thread across many of these technologies. Government agencies rarely modernize just to adopt a new tool—they modernize to improve agility, security, resilience, and maintainability. Some technologies I will talk about in this article are foundational to modernization, while others are enabling capabilities. Across government, modernization efforts increasingly emphasize outcomes rather than technology adoption for its own sake. Common outcome improvements that Federal Government CIOs and CTOs look for include faster delivery of software and digital services, reduced technical debt, improved cybersecurity and compliance and greater operational resilience. Some of the areas that both Aretum and I have seen improvements through the use of modern technologies include: Platform Engineering – this is where internal developer platforms have replaced ad hoc DevOps and DevSecOps work. Modernization in Platform Engineering increasingly means moving the organization’s approach

Post-quantum readiness: Where to start, key strategies, and what to avoid Todd Moore of Thales outlines post-quantum readiness essentials: Start with a cryptography inventory, build crypto agility, avoid point solutions, and act now before quantum threats arrive. "You can't fix something if you can't see it," warns Todd Moore, VP of Encryption at Thales. For most Fortune 500 companies, their cryptographic infrastructure remains dangerously invisible. Speaking with Dark Reading's Joan Goodchild at Black Hat USA, Moore stresses the need for a cryptography inventory, mapping every key, algorithm, and protocol before quantum computers render legacy encryption obsolete. With a 2029 regulatory deadline looming, time is running out. Moore argues the biggest mistake CISOs make is believing they can buy their way to quantum safety. Swapping in post-quantum algorithms without addressing protocols and infrastructure will disrupt banking systems, internet services, and enterprise applications. True readiness requires crypto agility — a hybrid architecture supporting old and new algorithms while transitioning systematically. There’s no single solution, only a phased plan. Moore also highlights an urgent convergence: AI agents are multiplying, relying on legacy cryptographic foundations now under threat. Encouragingly, AI can accelerate crypto discovery, helping organizations close gaps before quantum computers arrive. CISOs who fail to secure post-quantum budgets alongside AI investment today will likely regret it within five years. Todd Moore, VP of Encryption Products at Thales, focuses on data protection, encryption strategy, and cryptographic lifecycle management. With expertise in key management, hardware security modules, and post-quantum standards, Moore helps organizations build crypto agility frameworks to navigate evolving threats.

Colorado-based Infleqtion is one of just a small handful of companies whose technological advancements are propelling the local quantum economy.
The company evolved from a collaboration between University of Wisconsin-Madison physics professor Mark Saffman and University of Colorado professor Dana Anderson, who founded Infleqtion’s progenitor, ColdQuanta, in 2007.
Saffman brought expertise in neutral atom technology to Infleqtion, which focuses on multiple quantum applications, including quantum computing, networking, sensing and security.
Neutral atoms function as the building blocks for quantum computing and sensing; they are akin to the foundational “bits” of traditional computers. Quantum computers have the potential to solve problems of much higher complexity than conventional machines.
The company, which went public this past February, has offices in Madison, Chicago, around the globe. Saffman said maintaining a presence near UW-Madison keeps the company close to a promising pool of local talent as it drives quantum innovation forward.

| | Who will believe the space logs in 2040? Space governance and the quantum audit problem by Burak OktenliMonday, August 10, 2026 | | | Satellites log activities and transmit those data to Earth, but often rely on encryption systems vulnerable to hacking by quantum computers. (credit: L3Harris) | Space operations have become exercises in relentless logging. Every thruster firing, every conjunction warning, every proximity operation, and every anti-satellite test generates a stream of telemetry that is meticulously recorded. Today, these logs are operational necessities, but decades from now they will become critical geopolitical evidence. If a state actor claims in 2037 that a commercial satellite intentionally interfered with its military asset, the resolution of that crisis will depend entirely on the historical data recorded today. But how will we know that those logs are authentic and unaltered? The answer is cryptographic signatures. Unfortunately, this is precisely where the foundation of space governance begins to crack. | Directing engineers to use new algorithms for new satellites solves only half the problem. The unresolved crisis in space governance is what happens to the historical records. | Currently, the cryptographic locks securing space records rely overwhelmingly on classical algorithms like the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). These algorithms are mathematically sound today, but they have a strictly limited shelf life. In August 2024, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) finalized its first post-quantum cryptographic standards, and its companion transition roadmap, NIST IR 8547, sets a hard deadline. Classical algorithms like ECDSA are slated to be âdeprecatedâ by 2030 and entirely âdisallowedâ by 2035. The defense community is rightly focused on the âharvest now, decrypt laterâ threat, where adversaries intercept encrypted communications today to decrypt them when quantum computing matures. However, space audit trails face a more insidious variation

Utah bets on quantum computing as state seeks place in emerging industry SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — Utah is moving to establish itself in the emerging quantum computing industry, betting that early investment and coordination could help the state capture jobs and technological opportunities even as researchers caution that practical quantum computers remain years away. The initiative, launched through an executive order signed Monday by Gov. Spencer Cox, known as the Utah Quantum Initiative, is a statewide effort to accelerate research, commercialization, workforce development and advanced manufacturing in quantum technology. The executive order establishes a Quantum Coordination Council led by the Governor’s Office of Economic Development. The council will bring together leaders from state government, higher education and industry to coordinate Utah’s quantum strategy and better position the state for private investment and federal opportunities. Ryan Camacho, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at BYU who provided input on Utah's initiative, said the field had changed dramatically since he attended graduate school in the early 2000s, when quantum computing largely centered around physicists conducting experiments. “We're definitely in the middle of an inflection point,” Camacho said. “It's interesting times.” Quantum computers operate differently from the conventional computers used in homes and businesses. Traditional computers encode information in bits represented as zeros or ones. Quantum computers use quantum bits, or qubits, which can exploit properties including entanglement. Quantum algorithms must manipulate the possible computational paths and then use interference to produce a useful result. “The hard part,” he said, is interfering the wave-like behavior of quantum particles in a way that yields the correct answer. Researchers also face a difficult hardware problem. Qubits are highly susceptible to disturbances from their surroundings. Small effects can introduce errors, and because qubits can be entangled with one another, an error affecting one can

An Air Force Research Laboratory award to Eaton has initiated a multi-year, multi-million-dollar program with Infleqtion to apply quantum computing to a critical challenge facing the U.S. electrical grid. Contingency analysis, used to prevent cascading power outages, is increasingly straining the capabilities of conventional computers due to the sheer number of potential failure scenarios. “Grid reliability is a large-scale optimization challenge that pushes the limits of today’s classical systems,” says Pranav Gokhale, CTO at Infleqtion, as the collaboration aims to improve vulnerability assessments and reduce blackout risk. Quantum Algorithms Enhance U.S. Grid Contingency Analysis The U.S. This collaboration represents a direct investment in leveraging advanced technology to address vulnerabilities within the nation’s power infrastructure, moving beyond theoretical research into applied development. As grids grow more interconnected and data-intensive, the number of “what-if” scenarios increases dramatically, overwhelming classical methods. Classical analysis often relies on approximations insufficient for robust risk management, creating a bottleneck that quantum computing may resolve by more efficiently evaluating complex combinations using quantum interference algorithms. Infleqtion will contribute expertise in quantum algorithms tailored for combinatorial optimization problems central to power system analysis, alongside circuit optimization and error correction techniques. Eaton anticipates that this research will significantly improve infrastructure planning, daily operations, and emergency preparedness, ultimately strengthening the nation’s critical infrastructure. The program will also assess the feasibility of quantum computers offering advantages at an operational scale, comparing performance against classical methods and estimating resource requirements for future real-world applications. This initiative aligns with the Department of Energy’s Genesis Mission, a national effort utilizing artificial intelligence and advanced computing to modernize energy infrastructure and enhance national security, demonstrating a coordinated push towards a more resilient power grid.

Connecting the dots Meet Little Hermie Monterde, the UM PhD grad revolutionizing quantum networks. If you want to build a better quantum computer, you must understand exactly how information moves. For Hermie, a recent standout from the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, this incredibly complex problem all comes down to connecting the dots. Using a clever mix of combinatorics and linear algebra, Hermie looks at quantum networks as arrays of numbers to better analyze how quantum information travels. Specifically, they pioneered the idea of 'sedentary vertices'—basically, spots on a network where quantum states like to stay put, which is a super important concept for building quantum memory. They’ve also nailed down major discoveries in Perfect State Transfer (getting information accurately from point A to point B) and uniform mixing, which is all about quantum entanglement and making these futuristic computers lightning fast. Along with speaking at the WITP Symposium and organizing an invited Mini symposium at CanaDAM 2025, Hermie has received some massive honours, including the UManitoba Graduate Fellowship, the Dean of Graduate Studies Student Achievement Prize, the UM Distinguished Dissertation Award in Natural Sciences, a PIMS-Simons Postdoctoral Fellowship, and an NSERC Canada Postdoctoral Research Award. But their impact at UM goes way beyond research papers and algorithms. Hermie is an absolute powerhouse for equity, diversity, and inclusion in STEM. They’ve delivered talks across the country—including at UBC and U of T for LGBTQ+ Math Day, the 2SLGBTQ+ in STEM Conference, and the GAIN Conference—and spearheaded events like the Queer in Computational and Applied Mathematics Workshop. For Hermie, pushing for representation comes from direct personal experience navigating academia. Whether they're organizing international academic conferences, advocating for equity in STEM, or mapping out the future of quantum technology, Hermie is leaving an incredible mark on UM and the global math

Pasqal has demonstrated what it believes is the first trapping of individual atoms using laser light generated by a photonic integrated circuit, marking a potential step toward more scalable neutral-atom quantum computers. The milestone was achieved with Aeponyx, a photonics company Pasqal acquired less than 18 months ago, and is intended to address one of the major hardware challenges associated with scaling quantum processors. Neutral-atom quantum systems use tightly focused laser beams, known as optical tweezers, to trap and control individual atoms that function as qubits. As Pasqal works toward systems containing more than 10,000 atoms and 100 logical qubits, the company said increasingly complex optical hardware has become an important engineering constraint. Current systems can require large free-space optical benches, while Pasqal’s new approach moves critical optical functions onto a photonic chip. In the demonstration, Pasqal generated four optical traps using a single photonic integrated circuit and used them to hold four individual rubidium atoms inside a quantum processing unit. The company believes this represents the first use of trapping light delivered from a photonic chip to hold atoms in a neutral-atom quantum computer. The work forms part of a broader development program focused on generating, routing and controlling laser light directly on-chip. Testing showed that the photonic-chip architecture could reproduce atom trapping performance comparable with Pasqal’s existing bulk-optics systems, including atom lifetimes of approximately 27.5 seconds. Pasqal said the results indicate that integrated photonics could provide a scalable foundation for future neutral-atom processors without compromising qubit-control quality. The platform was co-developed using Aeponyx’s silicon-nitride photonics expertise. Pasqal said the architecture is designed to reduce the optical footprint of future processors by as much as 50 times, potentially making large-scale quantum hardware easier to manufacture as the industry moves from laboratory prototypes toward commercial production. The company plans to

The cryptographic locks protecting trillions of dollars in digital assets were designed for a world without quantum computers. That world is ending faster than most people in crypto realize, and the industry's response is still dangerously fragmented. NIST finalized its first three post-quantum cryptography standards in August 2024 and told every organization using public-key cryptography to begin migration immediately. Bitcoin (BTC) alone holds roughly $1.57 trillion in market capitalization, and the vast majority of that value is secured by elliptic curve digital signature algorithms that a sufficiently powerful quantum computer could break. The clock is running. TL;DR - NIST's 2024 post-quantum standards mark a hard deadline for crypto projects to begin migration away from elliptic curve cryptography or face existential security risk. - An estimated 4 million BTC sitting in exposed P2PK outputs or reused addresses could be directly vulnerable once cryptographically relevant quantum computers arrive. - Most major blockchains have no binding post-quantum upgrade roadmap, creating a fragmented and time-pressured security landscape heading into the late 2020s. 1. The Quantum Threat to Blockchain Is Specific, Not Theoretical The phrase "quantum threat" gets thrown around loosely, but for blockchain specifically the danger is precise and well-documented. Two algorithms sit at the core of most blockchain security- the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA), used to authorize transactions, and SHA-256, used in Bitcoin's proof-of-work mining. These face very different levels of quantum risk. Shor's algorithm, developed in 1994, can factor large integers and solve the discrete logarithm problem in polynomial time on a quantum computer. A paper published on arXiv in 2023 by researchers at the University of Sussex estimated that breaking Bitcoin's 256-bit elliptic curve encryption would require a quantum computer with roughly 317 million physical qubits operating with low error rates. Grover's algorithm, by contrast, offers only a quadratic

Breaking the 100-qubit barrier: Executing the Quantum Fourier Transform at scale on IBM hardware Quantum algorithms rely heavily on key subroutines such as the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT), which underpin applications ranging from phase estimation to quantum factoring (Shor’s algorithm). However, error accumulation and routing overhead are bottlenecks to executing large-scale quantum subroutines on real quantum hardware. In our latest technical manuscript, Q-CTRL researchers overcame these hardware limits to demonstrate a 100-qubit QFT on IBM Quantum computers. These results represent the largest experimental QFT on any quantum hardware to date by a factor of two. At Q-CTRL, our mission is to make quantum technology useful. This work highlights our focus on optimizing hardware performance and extracting the most useful results. Finding the signal from 2¹⁰⁰ possibilities The ultimate test of this algorithmic subroutine is whether hardware can extract the correct high-dimensional quantum state period. In our benchmarking trials, we encoded periodic signals into quantum registers of 50, 80, and 100 qubits that represent a Hilbert space signal dimension of 2¹⁰⁰. At this scale, there are more than 10^30 (quadrillion times quadrillion) wrong answers, but only one correct frequency that the QFT must find. Successfully isolating the exact target frequency on a noisy device demonstrates that quantum processors can extract meaningful global information from high-dimensional quantum states. When executed on a 156-qubit IBM Heron r3 processor, our compilation strategy delivered remarkable fidelity and selectivity at every tier: - 100-qubit resolution: Across every test circuit up to 100 qubits, the correct target integer frequency emerged as the unique mode result (the single most frequently measured bitstring), standing out clearly above the background noise. - 50-qubit selectivity: At 50 qubits, the target bitstring was 8.4 times more frequent than any single incorrect output in the raw measurement data. The unitary process fidelity reached
