      With a PhD in quantum atom-optics, Richard has spent nearly two decades managing scientific teams across disruptive early-stage technologies such as quantum, AR/VR and other consumer and industrial applications of photonics. Richard co-founded ORCA Computing in 2019 and has grown the company including the addition of a U.S. headquarters in Austin, Texas, following a strategic acquisition in 2024. Previously, Richard worked for the UK government supporting Sir Peter Knight leading the innovation activities for the £270m UK quantum technologies program, and was part of the founding group for the €1 billion EU quantum flagship program.

        Be Quantum Secured: Turning Guidelines into Action for the Future of Finance - Powered by ST Engineering

        LaunchpadLaunchpad RoomOpen

        About this session

        ST Engineering is launching its Quantum Technology Research Translation programme, bringing together industry partners and leading researchers from Institutes of Higher Learning and research institutions to accelerate the translation of quantum research into commercially relevant solutions.

        In this workshop, ST Engineering explores how its Quantum and AI (QAI) capabilities help banks, insurers and financial services firms prepare for developments in quantum technology. Through practical use cases, we will show how QAI is being applied across the sector’s most pressing priorities: post-quantum cybersecurity, quantum-enabled fraud detection, derivatives pricing, portfolio and risk optimisation and zero-day cyber threat detection.

        The session will also introduce Quantizant, ST Engineering’s solution to help financial institutions assess their exposure, plan their migration, and build resilience for the post-quantum era. We close with a look ahead at emerging frontiers, including quantum machine learning and next-generation computing infrastructure, and what they mean for the future of finance.

        The quantum era will reward those who prepare early. By bringing together cutting-edge research, ST Engineering’s engineering capabilities and real-world applications, ST Engineering is helping financial institutions strengthen cyber resilience, unlock new approaches to complex financial computation and optimisation, and turn the risks of the quantum era into a competitive advantage.
