What We Do
QuantumBeads helps organisations understand, evaluate, and prepare for quantum computing. We do this through three channels:
- Consulting: We help companies assess where quantum computing fits into their operations and build a practical adoption roadmap
- Workshops & Training: We run hands-on workshops for teams at all levels, from quantum basics to advanced topics like error correction and algorithm design
- Research: Our active PhD-level research in quantum information theory informs everything we do, giving clients access to expertise at the frontier of quantum computing
How QuantumBeads Started
QuantumBeads began during Fatah Jamro's PhD at ATU Galway. While working at the frontier of quantum information theory, it became clear that there was a real gap between cutting-edge quantum research and what organisations actually understood about quantum computing. Most companies were curious but had no idea where to start.
What started as an educational initiative — organising an international winter school in Pakistan in 2024 — has grown into a consultancy that bridges academic research with practical industry needs. We're honest about where we are: early-stage, research-driven, and growing. But that also means our clients get direct access to a researcher who lives and breathes this field every day.
Where We're Headed
In the near term, our focus is on consulting and education — helping organisations build genuine quantum literacy and make informed decisions. We believe most companies don't yet need a quantum computer; they need someone who can help them understand when and how to get ready.
Longer term, as our PhD research matures, we're exploring how the mathematical structures we work with can be applied to build practical tools for quantum hardware verification and benchmarking. This is an active area of our PhD research, and we'll bring these capabilities to our clients as the work progresses.
Our Research
Quantum Latin Squares are mathematical structures with promising applications across quantum computing. Our founder's PhD research is actively exploring how they can be applied to:
- Hardware benchmarking — developing methods to characterise quantum processor performance
- Error correction — constructing quantum error correcting codes using mutually orthogonal quantum Latin squares
- Quantum cryptography — exploring applications through unitary error bases and mutually unbiased bases
This research is ongoing and has been published at the IEEE International Conference on Quantum Communications, Networking, and Computing (QCNC 2024) in Kanazawa, Japan.
Who We Are
Fatah Jamro is the founder of QuantumBeads and a PhD candidate at Atlantic Technological University Galway. With a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Electronics Engineering and over 5 years of industry experience, Fatah brings both deep theoretical knowledge and practical engineering sensibility to quantum computing.
We're a small team today, and we're upfront about that. What we offer is direct access to a researcher working at the frontier of quantum information theory — not a sales team. When you work with QuantumBeads, you work with the people doing the actual research.
What We Stand For
Honesty
Quantum computing is full of hype. We give you the straight picture — what's real, what's promising, and what's still years away.
Rigour
Everything we teach and advise is grounded in published, peer-reviewed research. We don't speculate — we work from evidence.
Accessibility
Quantum computing shouldn't be gatekept. We explain things clearly, whether you're a PhD researcher or a curious executive.
