Some of our early work on compiling linear algebra subroutines just came out in Quantum Machine Intelligence. The paper is here.
I've been very active on the CSTheory and Theoretical Physics stack exchange sites, but only ever answered one question on stack overflow. It's a tongue in cheek answer to the old Google interview ...
Chaired the Quantum Processor Strategy Working Group under the National Research Foundation's Quantum Engineering Program.
Our partners at Rigetti gave us early access to pulse level control on their systems. Gave a talk at their Quantum Advantage conference showing off some of our results on rapid characterisation and...
Named to the MIT Technology Review Innovators Under 35 Asia list, and spoke at EmTech Asia. The video of my talk is here.
Selected as a National Research Foundation fellow. Awarded just over S$3.5m in research funding over 5 years.
Raised a seed+ round, adding Sequoia to Horizon's cap table. The round was covered in Techcrunch here.
Raised Horizon's seed round from SGInnovate, Abies Ventures, DCVC and a number of angel investors.
Spoke at the AWS ASEAN Summit. Video is here.
Spoke about Quantum Software at EmTech Asia.
Decided now was the time to stop writing papers about quantum computing and start building stuff, so registered a company: Horizon Quantum Computing.
