Management Team
The Network is led by Peter Haynes (Imperial College London) and Richard Curry (University of Manchester). Rachel Oliver (University of Cambridge) will chair the Strategic Advisory Board.
The Network Committee comprises the two Network leads, the chairs of each of the Network interest groups and nominated representatives from the National Quantum Technology Programme (NQTP).
The Executive Committee consists of the two Network leads, the Strategic Advisory Board chair, and three representatives from the Network Committee: one from each of the Materials Interest Group chairs, Thematic Interest Group chairs and the NQTP representatives.
