Career

Quantum technology won't wait for anyone to feel ready for their right move.

We are in the era where corporates can win a lasting advantage by understanding and investing in Quantum. The technology is still forming, and the choices companies make now will decide who ends up ahead of it.

We help Executives and Innovation leaders to reduce uncertainty and identify the right moves.

Quantum technologies are moving from labs into real use.

As it does, the companies close to it help decide where it gets applied and on what terms. The ones watching from a distance will work with what's already been settled.
The window of opportunity for new business won't be open forever — corporates still have a chance to shape it. Companies are already taking their first steps.

Industry, Logistics, Critical Infrastructure are the industries where quantum technologies are expected to create growth opportunities and disruption to those that do not adapt.

From physics to business impact. - Do you know how to leverage Quantum technologies

Quantum is more than Quantum computing. Depending on your industry either of those might be more relevant.

Quantum Computing

Leveraging qubit properties (superposition) to solve computational problems where classical computers reach their limits — where complexity grows exponentially.

Exemplary use cases

  • Drug & Materials Discovery
  • Logistics & Supply Chain Optimization
  • Financial Risk & Portfolio Modeling

Technology Readiness:
Early but moving fast — first real business problems being tested now

Quantum Sensing

Using the subatomic properties of particles (atoms, ions or photons) to perform sensing and measurements with a precision far beyond what classical instruments can achieve.

Exemplary use cases

  • Non-Destructive Testing & Quality Control
  • Medical Diagnostics & Imaging Precision
  • Navigation & Positioning

Technology Readiness:
Already commercial — sensing devices are shipping and in field use today

Quantum Communication

Encoding and transmitting information by using the laws of quantum physics (entanglement) — with theoretically unbreakable security.

Exemplary use cases

  • Secure Data & Communications
  • Critical Infrastructure Protection
  • Long-Term Data Security

Technology Readiness:
Deployed where security is critical — QKD networks are already running

Build real business

Actively participate in an ecosystem to co-create leading Quantum solutions and drive meaningful impact through Quantum technologies in the organization.

Developed for organizations that are already engaged with Quantum and are building up capabilities to leverage Quantum potential

We unlock the business value of quantum technologies

Get a clear read on quantum

A Quantum journey starts by creating internal awareness and appetite for the Quantum technologies with light formats, where selected stakeholders can be involved & contribute with little time effort.

Our clients appreciate formats, like:

  • Discovery Workshop: quantum computing, sensing and communication mapped to your industry
  • Technology Talk: a week of expert sessions to find first use cases

A Technology Talk at a leading European Energy TSO resulted into five application areas and three use cases identified.

From stance to roadmap

Organizations explore how quantum technologies can create value in their industries by identifying relevant use cases, defining clear roadmaps, and preparing their implementation together with the right ecosystem partners.

  • Our clients collaborate with Research & Labs, Quantum Experts, Industry Practitioners, and Quantum Companies to refine use-case roadmaps and move them toward implementation through structured workshop formats and the whataventure network.

We supported a leading European research association to bring in one room corporates, research, experts and Quantum companies to tackle real-life challenges.
