Tom Taylor is a commercial technology leader and former Ruby engineer with 11 years of experience scaling startups and public-sector digital transformation programs. As CEO of Quantum Base he is commercialising a patented Quantum-ID technology to create a new global standard in authentication, following a rapid internal promotion from Chief Commercial Officer. Previously he drove Made Tech’s growth from 30 to 500 people and led £30M of central government business through an AIM IPO experience, blending hands-on delivery leadership with sales and P&L ownership. Tom’s background spans founding a successful NZ ticketing startup, senior engineering roles, enterprise software sales and a law degree—an unusual mix that helps him navigate product, regulation and go-to-market strategy. An avid windsurfer and sailor, he brings a bias for action and practical ingenuity to deep-tech commercialisation.
