Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Can quantum software create value before perfect hardware arrives?
Q: Could you give a two-minute pitch why Kipu Quantum is exciting for investors to watch?
Kipu aims to be the first company to use commercial quantum computers in the cloud to tackle industrial problems requested by customers, validating that quantum solutions can outperform classical ones through concrete benchmarks.
Quantum may need a new cooling architecture, not just bigger fridges
Q: Can you explain in basic terms how your technology works? What are the building blocks of cryogenic cooling?
Magnetic cooling relies on the magnetocaloric effect in paramagnetic solids that do not order magnetically at very low temperatures. By magnetizing the material, heat of magnetization is produced and rejected to a pre-cooling stage; then demagnetizing allows the material to absorb heat from the environment, cooling the payload when mechanically coupled to it. In CADR, multiple magnetic cooling units operate in a coordinated cycle so cooling is continuous rather than one-shot.
Koen Groenland Part 1 Deep Dive interview
Q: Can you explain your background and what shaped you as a researcher and entrepreneur?
Koen describes his shift from a strict academic path at the University of Amsterdam and QSoft toward translating quantum research into real-world applications, emphasizing the importance of communicating between academia and industry and building a broader ecosystem.
Pex Machina Deep dive interview part 1: Matthias Kaiser
Q: Can you start with sharing your journey? What brought you from physics and a quantum background into precision oncology?
I studied physics and moved into industry through a sales-focused role in Latvia, where I learned to engage with customers and understand their real needs. That combination of scientific background and business sense eventually led me to pinpoint a practical problem in oncology where quantum simulations could make a meaningful difference, specifically by helping design better cancer drugs and reduce trial-and-error experimentation.
Part 2 Deep dive interview Quantum scout Olga Mamlyga
Q: Can you walk investors through how we should think about terminal value?
The guest explains that quantum networks target critical infrastructure with high barriers and potential for recurring revenue, and that early adopter partnerships with governments, telcos, and key industries create strategic value, which should drive long-term value and justify valuation.
