Technology revolutionizes the way we live, unlocking greater knowledge, enhancing our capabilities, and creating new opportunities. But insecure, negligent, or exploitative technological advancements are threatening global security and stability as we speak.
Welcome to TechnologIST Talks, a new podcast brought to you by the Institute for Security and Technology. We're bringing conversations on these emerging security challenges—and the ideas to tackle them—to the forefront.
In this season of TechnologIST Talks, we're focusing on the race to accelerate innovation in technologies of national strategic importance. We’re in an era where government is no longer the sole force driving technology-enabled economic growth; private industry plays an essential role in shaping technology for the future. To secure tomorrow, the public and private sectors must come together to advance technologies that will benefit society and contribute to global stability.
We will sit down with entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and policymakers to learn about the real-world challenges they face in accelerating innovation across biotech, quantum, energy, and other critical technology areas. We’ll get their takes on the policies that help or hinder their progress, and discuss where they see things heading.

“Five years ago, I wanted to come back to the passion of my life, quantum physics, and use my corporate finance background to actually commercialize it. Because now it has come to a phase where you can actually commercialize quantum tech, quantum computing, we founded Terra Quantum.” - Markus Pflitsch
Host Megan Stifel welcomes Markus Pflitsch. Formerly in the financial services sector, Markus transitioned back into the quantum space in 2019. He details his path to becoming CEO and founder of a leading quantum company, his unique take on the quantum ecosystem, and the differences in the funding environments in Europe and the United States.
