About qubit-lab.ch

Founder · MSc Physics ETH Zurich · MBA · PMP
Daniel Hug is a physicist and senior transformation professional with leadership experience across UBS, Credit Suisse, and SIX. Years of delivering regulated change in large financial institutions shaped a simple conviction: broad exploratory programs stall, while small fixed-scope steps that end in a clear decision move organizations forward. qubit-lab.ch is built on that conviction.
That background shapes how qubit-lab.ch works: quantum results are explained in business terms, benchmarked honestly against classical methods, and translated into outputs that hold up in front of management, risk, and technical stakeholders alike.
One lean step, then a decision.
qubit-lab.ch exists to make the first quantum step for a financial institution small, low-effort, and conclusive: a quantum sprint of roughly two to three months — an awareness briefing for management, a hands-on kickstart for the team, then six weeks of Rapid Quantum Prototyping on your own data with real quantum algorithms, every result checked against an exact classical referee.
At the end you have what most quantum initiatives never produce: a go/no-go decision backed by certified numbers on your own data — including, where warranted, an honest “not yet”. Evidence, not promises. No broad program, no standing team, no vendor lock-in: each step is fixed in scope and fee, and nothing obliges you to take the next.
The primary path
The Lean Quantum Exploration Process
Three staged steps, each with its own usable output and a clear decision at the end — enter at any step:
Quantum Awareness Briefing — align management on what quantum can and cannot do today, and whether it merits a sprint at all.
Quantum Capability Kickstart — five hands-on half-day sessions take your quant, risk, and data science team from single qubits to running quantum algorithms, and to their own candidate use cases.
RQP Exploration (Rapid Quantum Prototyping) — six weeks of exploration with the RQP suite on your own data: your workbook in, quantum versus a certified classical referee, a certified report out. Test, compare, decide.
The separate, urgent track
Post-Quantum Cryptography
Independent of whether quantum computing ever helps your portfolio, it already threatens your cryptography. qubit-lab.ch offers concrete PQC support — PQC Mobilization and the PQC Navigator — for regulated institutions preparing their migration.

Selected partners
qubit-lab.ch works with selected partners to support practical quantum computing enablement, enterprise technology perspectives, market access, and post-quantum cryptography readiness.
