J’ai sauté le pas de l’entrepreneuriat en 2022 en lançant Siquance pour transformer les forces de la recherche française en une innovation qui conduit à un leadership dans le domaine du numérique. Siquance a pour objectif de développer et de commercialiser à terme un ordinateur quantique à base des technologies de la microélectronique.
