Professor Andrew Dzurak is an innovator and entrepreneur in the global quantum technologies ecosystem, leading teams in both industry and academia. He is CEO & Founder of , a full-stack quantum computing company employing the silicon CMOS qubits developed by his team at UNSW Sydney over the past two decades. He is also concurrently a Scientia Professor in Quantum Engineering at UNSW Sydney, an ARC Laureate Fellow and a Member of the Executive Board of the .

Andrew holds a PhD in Physics from the University of Cambridge (UK) and a BSc (Hons) from the University of Sydney. Prior to launching Diraq, he was the foundational Director (2007-2022) of ANFF-NSW, the NSW node of the . Andrew was also a key participant over 20 years ago in the establishment of the ARC Centre for Quantum Computer Technology by Professor Bob Clark, which now maintains the world’s largest focused collaboration on silicon-based quantum computing.

Andrew, with colleague Andrea Morello, demonstrated the world’s first silicon quantum bits (qubits) in 2012, and over the past decade has developed a naturally scalable qubit technology by reconfiguring the ubiquitous CMOS transistors that make up all of today’s silicon processor chips. This CMOS qubit technology underpins Diraq, which aims to redefine scalable quantum computing and bring practical commercial applications to the world via billions of qubits on single chip, compared to the hundreds of qubits that exist today.

He has published over 200 research papers, and has , including 6 seminal papers in Nature that include the world’s first demonstrations of one- and two-qubit quantum logic calculations in silicon chip devices. He is also an inventor on more than 30 patents across 12 patent families. Andrew received the 2011 Eureka Prize for Scientific Research, and his demonstration of a CMOS-based quantum logic was selected by Physics World, UK as one of the world’s Top Ten Scientific Breakthroughs for 2015. His research team at UNSW is funded by Diraq, together with the Australian Research Council and the US Army Research Office.
