MOTH's CTO Spencer Topel and CSO James Wootton joined an inspiring group of thinkers and creators for Quantum Knowledge: States, Systems, Fictions — a two-day symposium at HGK Basel FHNW exploring the poetics and politics of quantum science across disciplines.

We’re thrilled to welcome Dr Ilana Wisby as CEO to lead Moth into its next phase of accelerated growth. As the first and only consumer-facing quantum technologies company, Moth is on a bold mission to become one of the most influential quantum companies in the world. Ilana is one of the most respected and recognisable leaders in quantum computing, and we’re proud to have her at the helm as we scale our infrastructure and launch products that inspire, empower, and bring real value to our customers and partners.

Moth’s quantum synthesiser, Actias, is being showcased and featured at the LAS Art Foundation’s exhibition at Kraftwerk Berlin from 21st February to 4th May 2025.

This year, we were proud to contribute to this year’s APS Global Physics Summit in Anaheim, CA. “It was great to see so much of the quantum industry and academia coming to share their scientific results, and to get feedback from the community. The Year of Quantum celebrations also provided great opportunities to see creative takes on quantum technology, both at the Quantum Jubilee and Quantum Playground. I was proud that Moth was invited to be a part of both the scientific and creative parts of the meeting.” – Dr. James Wootton, Moth CSO Swipe through to explore the work we shared in the exhibitor hall.

Dr. James Wootton, Moth’s Chief Scientific Officer, recently presented at the Yale Quantum Institute Nontechnical Talk Series, offering valuable insights into how quantum technologies are poised to redefine the creative and gaming landscapes.

We’re excited to welcome three brilliant minds to our research team in Switzerland: Dr. João Ferreira, Dr. Pierre Fromholz, and Dr. Shreyan Chowdhury. Their expertise spans quantum applications, game development, hardware and software research, and AI-driven music systems—each bringing a unique perspective to our mission of shaping the future of creative quantum computing.

We’re excited to see researchers, Xinjian Ji at Peking University and Weijia Yang at Kyounggi University of South Korea, modifying Actias, creating a new version with the addition of quantum gate operations, adding a new dimension to how users engage with the application.

We at Moth are proud to be at the forefront of building real-world quantum applications. With UNESCO’s inauguration of 2025 as the Year of Quantum Science and Technology, the conversation around quantum’s impact has never been more relevant.
