Royal Society of Science: Entrepreneur in Residence

Our CEO, Dr Sargent was appointed a Royal Society of Science Entrepreneur in Residence  at Imperial College London, Mathematics Department.

The programme is designed to help UK institutions turn world-leading research into commercial success. The scheme also aims to address skills gaps in industries like energy, transportation and data science by helping to foster an entrepreneurial culture within universities and develop curricula that produce industry-ready graduates.

Dr Sargent’s programme is entitled Mathematics for Quantum Technology (QT) 2.0. Mathematics has an important role to play in QT, both in terms of fundamental research and applications. Her activities are focusing on developing links between the College and the wider quantum community, including quantum hubs and the quantum industry. Dr Sargent also provides guidance and support to staff and students interested in emerging quantum or quantum-enabled technologies, products and services.
