Senior🎓
Top SchoolShantanu Sharma is a senior policy researcher with nine years of experience at the intersection of quantum technologies, cybersecurity, and geopolitics, currently driving ecosystem building at the Quantum Ecosystems and Technology Council of India. He combines hands-on cryptography and privacy engineering from roles at PayPal and NTU with strategic policy analysis developed at RSIS, producing actionable recommendations on supply chains, export controls, and space cyber resilience. A frequent speaker across Asia and Europe, he translates technical nuance into policy-ready insights on quantum supply risks, responsible tech, and information operations. His background in secure multiparty computation, federated learning and differential privacy — including an international patent for verifiable federated learning — gives him uncommon technical credibility for a policy practitioner. Based in Delhi, he blends academic rigor from NTU and UCL with practical implementation experience, making him effective at accelerating India’s quantum ecosystem.
