Jose Luis Garcia Coello

Chief Scientific Officer, Crypta Labs, London, United Kingdom

Not only has Dr. Jose Luis Garcia Coello pioneered practical quantum technologies for cybersecurity, but he has also led cross-sector collaborations, from space to the automotive industries.

As Chief Scientific Officer at Crypta Labs, he has developed accessible quantum technologies, including Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) built with commercial off-the-shelf components. His work has enabled secure satellite communications and made quantum security more broadly available to SMEs and developing nations. His foundational research on spin-based quantum computing and entanglement has advanced scalable architectures, with publications in the New Journal of Physics, secured millions in funding, commercialized affordable QRNGs, and filed patents for quantum-safe encryption.

Garcia Coello’s impact extends beyond research and product development. He has led numerous partnership programs, including with the UK Space Agency and the automotive industry. His work on QRNGs addresses supply chain challenges while democratizing access to quantum technology.

Garcia Coello actively supports early-career researchers and students at Crypta Labs, helping them gain hands-on experience in quantum technology. He engages in public outreach, conferences, and online platforms to raise awareness of quantum security.
