Maud Vinet is Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder of Quobly. After earning a PhD in Physics from Université Grenoble Alpes, she began her career at CEA-Leti in 2001, where she developed deep expertise in semiconductor integration and device engineering.
From 2009 to 2013, Maud was based in Albany, New York, where she led the development of fully-depleted SOI technologies within the IBM Alliance, working closely with STMicroelectronics. Her strategic vision was later instrumental in the launch of the 22FDX program with GlobalFoundries in Malta, NY, in 2015.
In 2019, Maud became Director of the Quantum Computing Program at CEA-Leti, steering the institute’s transition from advanced semiconductor research to quantum computing innovation. In 2022, she co-founded Quobly with Tristan Meunier and François Perruchot, uniting scientific excellence and industrial know-how to build scalable quantum processors.
Maud’s scientific career began with a PhD in Physics from Université Grenoble Alpes. But she rapidly honed her semiconductor expertise when she joined CEA-Leti in 2001 as a CMOS integration and device engineer. Between 2009 and 2013, she worked out of Albany, NY, orchestrating the development of fully-depleted SOI technologies with the IBM Alliance alongside STMicroelectronics. In 2015, Maud's strategic vision was instrumental in launching the 22FDX program with GlobalFoundries in Malta, NY.
Maud is the author or co-author of over 250 scientific communications and holds more than 70 patents in nanotechnology. In recognition of her contributions to science and innovation, she was named to the French Legion of Honor in 2019.
An intellectual powerhouse, Maud has published some 300 much-cited papers and owns more than 70 patents. She was admitted into the Order of the French Legion of Honor in 2019. She lives in the Grenoble, France area.
