Quantum Base CEO Tom Taylor joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more about the company's upcoming listing on the AIM market and its breakthrough anti-counterfeiting technology. Quantum Base, founded in 2013 as a spin-out from Lancaster University, has developed an atomic fingerprint that offers 100% secure authentication of goods, scannable with any smartphone. “It tells you 100% if something is real or it's fake,” Taylor said, describing the technology as a major leap in the fight against counterfeiting. Taylor explained that the technology has applications across sectors including brand protection, pharmaceuticals, tax stamps, banknotes, passports and even aerospace parts. The firm is already working with clients globally—from North America to the Middle East—and targeting both commercial brands and government organisations. The IPO is expected to raise £5 million, with £4.70 million already committed and trading set to begin on Friday under the ticker QUBE. The retail offer remains open. “We really want to grow… AIM really helps us grow,” Taylor said, noting the listing will support product development and expansion into new verticals. Key uses of the funds will include expanding Quantum Base's commercial team and scaling its product reach into global markets. Looking ahead, Taylor said investors should watch for announcements of new customers and entry into new industries as milestones on the path to profitability.

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com “Efficiency” seems like the new buzzword for federal technology in the next few years. When writing software sense, efficiency can mean writing code once and moving on to regular maintenance. However, we see security initiatives being mandated that cause developers to go back to previous stable systems and add code alterations to comply with new cyber threats. Even beginner efficiency experts will tell you the time and cost of operating in this manner can be expensive. Further, recording can add new bugs and risks, making the system more complex. Federal technology leaders from CISA have not lost sight of this. They have a “Secure by Design” initiative that addresses this issue. As in many tech concerns, the concern is how to accomplish this noble task. Today, we sit down with Nathan Jones from Sonar. He offers a solution that seeks to “shift left” the whole concept of security by design. His company provides systems that can review code to ensure its compliance. Further, he expands on an approach that can collaborate with developers while they write code. Nathan Jones gives listeners details about how Sonar's Qube can be deployed on a server, in the cloud, or with IDE. The benefits are ample: lower maintenance, minimizing risk, and allowing a focus on innovation rather than rewriting code.  

Today's episode drops on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the same day Donald Trump is sworn in as the 47th President of the United States. What a juxtaposition. We reflect on what this moment means for our communities and why the work we do matters now more than ever.

As we plan and prepare for the year ahead, today's episode rewinds to one of my conversations with Lo Nigrosh from the Milk Making Minutes podcast. Lo, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), shares essential advice on creating a breastfeeding support network, the role of online and in-person groups, and maintaining health and nutrition while breastfeeding. We also dive into the concept of the unicorn space and its significance for busy moms.
