Why this person is here
A co-author of quantum teleportation and of the BB84 key-distribution protocol, and a central figure in treating information as a physical quantity. The practical consequence for this site's subject matter is that quantum communication has a rigorous security language at all — the earliest QKD claims were provable protocols, not marketing.
How it connects to the data on this site
BB84 is why quantum-communication rows in the funding ledger can be checked against a protocol rather than a product claim, and why a security announcement is never counted as a financing here.
