Dr. Théau Peronnin, Ph.D. - CEO, Alice & Bob - Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing

Dr. Théau Peronnin, Ph.D. is a physicist by training and a visionary leader in the field of quantum computing.

After earning his master’s degree from École Polytechnique in Paris and completing his PhD in quantum physics at École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, Dr. Peronnin embarked on a mission to tackle one of the greatest technological challenges of our time: building a truly fault-tolerant quantum computer.

In 2020, Dr. Peronnin co-founded the quantum‐computing start-up Alice & Bob ( https://alice-bob.com/ - based in Paris with global ambitions) and took the helm as its CEO. Under his leadership, the company has focused on a novel architecture known as “cat qubits” — a design that embeds error correction directly into the qubits, aiming to significantly reduce the hardware complexity and error rates compared with more conventional quantum-computing approaches.

Dr. Peronnin’s work sits at the intersection of deep physics and engineering enterprise. He was part of academic research advancing superconducting qubit read-out and control techniques, and has since translated that research momentum into building infrastructure: labs, cleanrooms, cryogenic systems, and a growing team of quantum experts.

Dr. Peronnin frequently speaks about how quantum computing will not simply accelerate existing algorithms, but unlock totally new classes of problems — in materials, chemistry, biology and beyond.

Beyond technology, Dr. Peronnin emphasizes the importance of ecosystem, funding and audacity: he argues that Europe must pair deep science with industrial scale and ambition if it hopes to lead in the quantum race.
