Summary
👤
SeniorToby Cubitt is a quantum information scientist and entrepreneurial technologist with 16 years of research and leadership experience bridging theoretical physics, mathematics and computer science. He is Professor of Quantum Information and head of the Quantum Lab at UCL and co-founder, CTO and Chief Science Officer of Phasecraft, a quantum algorithms spinout that has attracted Series A backing from Silicon Valley deep-tech investors. Toby’s work spans high-impact academic publications in Nature, Science and PNAS, prestigious fellowships including a Royal Society URF, and prizes from the London Mathematical Society, reflecting a rare combination of deep theory and practical translation. Trained at Cambridge and the Max Planck Institute, he’s held postdocs across Europe and has built a career that moves ideas from rigorous theory to commercial quantum software and algorithms. Less obvious is his consistent focus on cross-disciplinary collaboration across institutions and countries, which has amplified both his academic citations and startup traction.
