Jirawat Tangpanitanon (Tew)
I'm a CEO and co-founder of Quantum Technology Foundation (Thailand) [QTFT] as well as a research fellow at Thailand Center of Excellence in Physics. Based in Bangkok, I work with leading STEM talents and corporates in Thailand to bring advanced optimization solutions to life using digital and quantum technologies.
During my PhD, I worked on quantum simulation at Center for Quantum Technologies, National University of Singapore. I was granted with Google's Quantum Innovations award in 2018 for the development of a spectroscopy technique used to characterize Google's quantum computer. The work was published in Science.
At QTFT, I have been working with our corporate partners to deliver optimization solutions in various areas including Air Traffic Management, Financial Asset Management, Logistics Optimization, Virtual Power Plant, and Production Planning.
Given its economic growth and rising business complexity, I believe Thailand and SEA will be a good testbed to develop use cases for the quantum optimization. Some of which could be the first in the world. My team and I are working hard everyday to make that vision happen!
