Is quantum technology purely a science of the future, or can it solve major enterprise problems today? In this episode, Pouya Dianat, Chief Revenue Officer of Quantum Computing Inc. (QCi), joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to discuss how his company is moving past the lab stage to deliver real business value right now. Dianat breaks down QCi’s unique hardware approach using nonlinear photonics and thin-film…

Is quantum computing trapped behind a hardware bottleneck? In this episode, host Konstantinos Karagiannis sits down with Richard Givhan, the CEO of Haiqu, who challenges this long-standing narrative. While the industry has historically focused on building perfect, fault-tolerant systems, Givhan argues that this theoretical cynicism has caused the software layer to be deeply undervalued. Haiqu is disrupting this…

In this episode, Chris Tam, President and Head of Innovation at BTQ, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to shatter the comforting illusions many Bitcoiners still hold about the quantum computing threat. While many assume that a Q-Day attack would only disrupt future mining, Tam exposes the true, terrifying reality: Quantum computers utilizing Shor's algorithm are on an exponential trajectory to cracking the…

In this episode, Thorsten Stremlau, a Systems Principal Architect at NVIDIA and Co-Chair of the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Marketing Work Group, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to discuss the critical role of hardware roots of trust in protecting against the quantum computing threat.

In this episode, host Konstantinos Karagiannis sits down with Toby Cubitt, the co-founder and CTO of Phasecraft, to explore how clever mathematics and algorithmic breakthroughs are slashing the requirements for quantum advantage by orders of magnitude. Toby shares how his team has already knocked factors of one million off the gate counts for critical simulations, effectively buying a decade of hardware development…

In this episode, we unpack how energy shocks translate into real‑world economic pressure, from higher fuel and shipping costs to rising prices on everyday products many people do not even associate with oil and gas. We explore why energy volatility is no longer an occasional disruption but a structural feature of the global economy, how companies and boards should think about resilience along with stability, and…

In this episode, Vincent van Wingerden, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Classiq, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to discuss the dawn of quantum vibe coding. While traditional quantum programming often requires tedious manual manipulation of gates and hardware-specific constraints, Classiq’s platform introduces a high-level abstraction that allows users to focus on intent rather than implementation.

Welcome to Risky Women Radio, the podcast that spotlights the bold, brilliant women leading change across risk, compliance and governance. In an era where uncertainty has been upgraded from a buzzword to a permanent state of being, we sit down with the leaders who navigate the chaos so the rest of us can sleep at night.In this episode, Zhiyun Nai, a managing director at Protiviti, is joined by Jean Chung, chief…

What if you could crunch numbers on a dataset without ever actually seeing the sensitive information inside? Dr. Kurt Rohloff, co-founder and CTO of Duality Technologies, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to explain the wild capabilities of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), which allows for computation on data while it remains fully encrypted. Because FHE is built on lattice-based cryptography, it offers robust…

In this landmark five-year special episode, host Konstantinos Karagiannis welcomes Addie LaMarr, a YouTuber and former cryptographer with eight years of experience in the Air Force and a history of writing cybersecurity policy for the Department of Justice. LaMarr identifies 2026 as the “beginning of quantum seriousness,” a year where global regulations are forcing a transition to protect critical data longevity…
