CQC has developed an expertise in AI and believes that Quantum Machine Learning will be a key area in the future. As part of its AI activity, the company has developed ARROW, a suite of AI algorithms that work on a classical computer. In its first iteration ARROW, provides selected partners with the tools to derive value from complex time series.
Ilyas Khan, founder, Director and CEO of Cambridge Quantum Computing has a wide and substantial background in business and tech. He is also currently the chairman and a founding trustee of the Stephen Hawking foundation.

0:00.0	Welcome to Almost Here, Around the Corner of Future Technology Podcasts with Richard Jacobs.
0:07.0	Future Technologies is poised to transform our lives for better or worse for the focus of this podcast. Almost here
0:14.3	means these technologies are now here and starting to be used. We're just around the
0:18.8	corner. For Bitcoin to Artificial Intelligence, 3D printing, blockchain, virtual reality, and more.
0:26.3	This is Richard Jacobs with Future Tech Podcasts, around the corner, almost to your technology.
0:31.6	Today I have a guest, very distinguished, Ilius Khan.
0:36.0	He's the CEO and founder of Cambridge Quantum Computing.
0:40.0	He's also the founding trustee of the Stephen Hawking Foundation and also founding
0:47.6	Chairman, non-executive at the Stanhill Foundation.
0:51.6	He probably has 100 more accolades that I can't even talk about but how you
0:56.5	don't know you?
0:57.5	Hey thank you very much I'm doing very well thank you.

1:28.0	you've rightly pointed out I'm the chairman of the Stephen Hawking Foundation and
1:32.3	that is a not-for-profit. I spend a little bit of time
1:35.5	and a great deal of pleasure in interacting with that foundation. But my day job and the primary focus of what I do is that I'm the founder and the chief
1:47.8	executive of Cambridge Quantum Computing. I've done a fair bit of technology related work in the past of course, but right now I frankly don't have much time beyond the two that I've just mentioned.
2:05.0	Yeah, until we get to quantum time management,
2:09.0	that will be possible, I guess.
2:12.0	Well, I'm finding that my children have an amazing ability to superimpose time.
