Alireza Shabani has decades of experience in quantum computing, working at Google, founding his own startup (Qulab), and later joining Cisco Quantum Lab. I interviewed Alireza during Innovation Night at IDEAS NCBR, where he gave the inaugural lecture.


"While in the world of technology, Spotify is associated with Sweden, and Skype and Bolt with Estonia, the stories of Polish companies that have conquered the world (e.g., CD Projekt or Allegro) are not yet widely known and are waiting to captivate the imagination of investors in this industry. Stories of successful initiatives that began in Poland could become the showcase of a new Silicon Valley on the Vistula and complement the “hard” competencies with a narrative of Polish success.  


Check out what else Alireza had to say about Poland's tech startup culture.
