At ESA, he contributes to technical and strategic activities exploring how quantum technologies can support future space missions and capabilities. These include quantum computing for space applications, quantum key distribution and the integration of quantum-secure technologies into satellite and ground-system architectures. He also engages with European industry, national agencies and research organisations to explore opportunities for cooperation and technology development.
His broader interests include the assurance, resilience and security of complex systems, and the practical challenges of moving new technologies from research into operational use. At Q-Def 2026, he will bring a space-systems perspective to the opportunities and limitations of quantum technologies for air and space operations.
