Dr. Jan Goetz is the CEO and co-founder of IQM Quantum Computers. He did his doctorate on superconducting quantum circuits at TU Munich and worked as a Marie-Curie Fellow in Helsinki at Aalto University, where he holds the title of docent. In 2018, Goetz spun IQM out of Aalto University and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland alongside his co-founders, raising over $600M in capital since then.
