ABOUT
The quantum sector is seeing increasing velocity, evidenced by recent technological breakthroughs from companies including AWS, Google, IBM, and Microsoft among others.
Let’s connect the future. Let’s connect the future.
Addressing quantum's next frontier
While the initial focus has been qubit density – i.e. how many qubits can we get onto a single chip – the next ‘big problem’ will be how to network these systems to work together. Quantum computers can’t just drop onto a classical network without collapsing the quantum state, or in other words that which makes quantum…quantum.
At memQ, we’ve developed an extensible quantum network architecture that enables networked quantum channels between quantum processing units (QPUs) and enables the use cases of scaling quantum compute instances beyond a single chip, cooperative processing between systems, resource sharing, and advanced resiliency schemes. All of which are needed for true commercial quantum advantage. Even better, we deliver this in the form of advanced integrated quantum photonics on commercial foundry silicon, removing massive cost, risk, and time-to-market obstacles.
Co founder, CTO
Mr. Sullivan, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer, previously held the position of Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Argonne National Laboratory from August 2019 to September 2022, winning the Postdoctoral Performance Award in Applied Engineering Research for his work on building the Chicago metropolitan-scale quantum communication testbed and developing new telecom-compatible qubit devices. Mr. Sullivan holds a PhD in Materials Engineering from The University of Texas at Austin where his research focused on the development of optical and microfabricated device techniques for probing spin and energy transport in advanced materials. He also holds an MS in Materials Science and Engineering as well as BS degrees in Materials Engineering, Physics, and French from Purdue University.
Co founder, CPO
Mr. Singh is Co-Founder and CPO of memQ, established in October 2022 to focus on scaling quantum computing through networking. In 2022, Manish obtained his PhD in Quantum Engineering from the University of Chicago and before that held positions at TSMC as an Integration Engineer and Process Engineer for advanced logic nodes from July 2012 to May 2017. Manish holds a PhD in Quantum Science and Engineering from the University of Chicago and a dual degree in Chemical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur.
Chairman, CEO
Charles Foley serves as Chairman & CEO of memQ Inc., a quantum networking leader with the mission to drive adoption by bringing scale-out configuration and control to a monolithic quantum compute world. Mr. Foley brings over 40 years of high-tech experience to the memQ leadership team from companies such as IBM, Memorex, Amdahl, NetApp, and others in the enterprise data, cloud, and high-performance networking arenas.
