About
Robert Bedington is co-founder and CTO at SpeQtral (formerly S15 Space Systems), which develops commercial quantum secure communication from space with the aim of supporting a global quantum internet. Previously, at CQT, he coordinated the development of nanosatellites carrying quantum technology demonstrator payloads for future QKD missions, including SpooQy-1, which demonstrated an entangled photon pair source in a 3U CubeSat, and QubeSat, a project with RAL Space to demonstrate entanglement-based QKD between a CubeSat and an optical ground station.
