Summary
Quantum Computing Inc. appointed Susan Hunt chief revenue officer and moved former CRO Pouya Dianat into a newly created chief product officer role to sharpen commercialization and product execution.
30 years of sales and technology experience underpin Hunt’s hire; QCi said she will run worldwide revenue strategy, sales, partnerships and customer success as the company pushes broader market deployment.
Dianat will now oversee product vision, strategy and commercialization, working across engineering, technology and marketing to turn QCi’s quantum capabilities into products for commercial and government customers.
QCi said the reshuffle is meant to better connect its room-temperature, lower-power quantum, photonics and semiconductor technologies with applications in AI, cybersecurity, aerospace and defense, sensing and imaging.
Will QCi's aggressive push for room-temperature photonics and domestic manufacturing disrupt the traditional timelines of established quantum computing giants?
Can separating product and revenue leadership finally bridge the gap between complex quantum technologies and practical everyday enterprise applications?
