Testimonials

“I’m delighted to share my experience with the recent quantum training series organized in collaboration between Mitacs and Qubo Consulting Corp. This training initiative contributes to Mitacs’ commitment to talent development under Canada’s National Quantum Strategy.

This quantum training series delved deep into the intricacies of quantum theory and its practical applications and implications for the economy. The expertise of the instructors, AJ and Katanya, is truly exceptional. Their passion for quantum science and business communication is infectious, and their dedication to guiding participants through this complex subject matter is commendable. They foster an inclusive learning environment where questions and discussions are encouraged, ensuring that everyone feels empowered to explore and learn. They made learning about a typically dry subject like quantum physics interesting and fun!

My experience collaborating with Qubo was seamless, from reviewing their course map to defining learning objectives, crafting social media content for course promotions, and executing workshops. Katanya and AJ were delightful to work with, displaying a high level of professionalism and competence. Participant feedback was positive, with courses filling up quickly.

Throughout our partnership with Qubo Consulting, we’ve consistently been impressed, finding the training series to surpass our expectations in quality. I enthusiastically endorse Qubo’s training as a valuable investment in both intellectual and professional growth.”

“I spent over 20 years communicating the ins and outs of quantum technologies to a variety of audiences, from young students, and general public to government officials and C-level executives. Suffice to say that in the early years, there was not a lot of tips and expertise going around on how to tell the quantum story in a palatable, entertaining and impactful way. It took years and many, many mistakes to hone this craft.

It was very interesting to hear A.J. Sikora’s course, Business Communication for Subject Matter Experts,’ because he was able to capture the art of communicating quantum in a clear, concise framework. Even with my background in science communication, I found this course to be a very valuable and practical guide to assist in structuring a talk/presentation/pitch, breaking down difficult concepts using educational principles, and increasing engagement with various tools. The Qubo Factors were interesting and gave me some new ideas to add to my presentation portfolio. Looking forward to incorporating these new concepts into my next talk!”

- Martin Laforest, Managing director of Quantacet and director of Quantum Strategy of ACET

“Katanya and A.J., the dynamic duo leading Qubo Consulting, are on a mission to facilitate the adoption of quantum technology and foster growth in this burgeoning sector. Despite being a relatively new venture, Qubo Consulting has rapidly garnered respect across the industry. This is a testament to Katanya and A.J.'s extensive and complementary expertise."

- Lisa Lambert, CEO, Quantum Industry Canada

“Thank you again for all your help. Quantum is such a fascinating topic and you explained it in a way that made it much less difficult for me to write about and convey to our readers. I’m sure I’ll be reaching out again for future quantum stories!”
