A Chat with Ilyas Khan: Founder,/Vice Chair/Chief Product Officer, Quantinuum; Leader in Residence at the University of Cambridge's Judge Business School; inaugural Chairman of The Stephen Hawking Foundation (until 2019); founding Chairman (non-executive) of the Topos Institute
This week, Stephen Ibaraki has an exclusive interview with Ilyas Khan.
Ilyas founded Cambridge Quantum in 2014 and was the founding CEO of Quantinuum, the company created as a result of the merger of Honeywell Quantum Solutions and Cambridge Quantum. As well as being Vice-Chairman of the board of directors, he is also the Chief Product Officer of Quantinuum and part of the executive leadership team of the company.
He is the Leader in Residence at the University of Cambridge's Judge Business School where he was instrumental in establishing the highly regarded Accelerate Cambridge program of investment in early-stage Cambridge-based deep-science technology sector companies.
Ilyas was the inaugural Chairman of The Stephen Hawking Foundation, holding the post until 2019. He is also the founding Chairman (non-executive) of the Topos Institute. He is also a fellow of St Edmund's College, Cambridge. Ilyas is recognised as one of the founders and leading voices in the quantum computing industry globally.
Quantinuum has achieved multiple milestones over the last year. These resources highlight that work.
