QuEra Deep Dive interview Part 2 CCO Yuval Boger 19.12.2025

Quantum’s “impossible problem” is finally shiftingfrom science → engineering.   In Part 2 of myconversation with Yuval Boger (CCO, QuEra)on Beyond the Qubit , we went deep into Error correction, Scaling and the physics that will determine which platforms survive. Hereare the insights 👇   https://youtu.be/Ndr7cbcDHRc     1. Every qubit technology has a fundamental weakness…until you correct it. Yu...

Deep dive interview QuEra CCO Yuval Boger 11.12.2025

“Quantum computers today still can’t outperformclassical systems, and that’s exactly why this moment matters.” That was one of thefirst things Yuval Boger (CCO, QuEra)told me during our deep dive on Beyond theQubit . And it genuinelyreframed how I look at the entire quantum industry. Here’swhat most people miss 👇 1. Quantum today isn’tabout solving problems. It’s about preparing for the moment it...

QuEra, CCO Yuval BogerNeutral atoms just went from dark horse → workhorse. 08.12.2025

This week on Beyond the Qubit , I sat down with Yuval Boger, CCO of QuEra, and he said something that hit me hard: “Quantum computers today are almost useless… butthat’s exactly why now is the most exciting time.”   Here’swhat I learned 👇 1. Neutral atoms might be the first scalable path to real quantum advantage Most qubits aremanufactured. Neutral atoms are perfect by nature . No fabricationdef...

Part 2 deep dive interview Thomas Ohki 28.11.2025

The future of compute might not get hotter. It mightget colder. In Part 2 of my deep-dive with Thomas Ohki, CTO and co-founder of Emergence Quantum, we explored how cryogenic engineering could reshape everything we know about performance, scaling, andenergy use. Thomas and his teamare building control electronics that can operate close to absolute zero. Thesechips could solve one of the biggest bo...

Part 2 Deep dive interview Quantum scout Olga Mamlyga 17.10.2025

🚀 Quantum security is no longer a future problem It’s here. Today. When I sat down with Olga Mamlyga, co-founder of Quantum Scout Apps, one insight kept echoing: “Hackersdon’t follow the rules. If you only protect one layer, they’ll find another.” Olga is building a 7-layer quantum-secure network that protects every layer of the OSI stack: from physicalfiber to application logic. Not in ten years...

Hackers don’t follow the book. If you only protect one layer, they willl go around it. 10.10.2025

🔒 The next cyber-attack won’t wait for quantum computers. On the new Beyond the Qubit I sat downwith Olga Mamlyga, co founder of Quantum Scout Apps. Her team builds physics-based quantum networks that secure all 7 layers of the internet stack far beyond what post-quantum cryptography can cover. “Hackersdon’t follow the rules. If you protect only one layer, they’ll simply go aroundit.” Why it matt...
