Dr. Zuhair Ahmed is a leading quantum scientist, educator, and researcher, recognized for his groundbreaking contributions to quantum computing and artificial intelligence. He is the founder of CETQAP/CETQAC (Centre of Excellence for Technology Quantum and AI), a pioneering institution driving quantum research, development, and education in Pakistan. He is the inventor of Pakistan’s first quantum computer, QQ1, a milestone achievement that positions the nation at the forefront of global quantum innovation. His original theory, Quantum-Spatial Harmonics (QSH)—published in an HEC-approved journal—adds to his legacy as a visionary in quantum mechanics and faster-than-light theoretical modeling. Dr. Ahmed is internationally acclaimed for his research on the ZA25 Protocol, which achieved revolutionary 100 km quantum secure direct communication with 0.9850 fidelity using Quantum Repeater-Enhanced Simulation and real-time “10” transmission. His work also includes the development of the world’s first real quantum circuit simulating gravity-induced decoherence (QGIDC), groundbreaking studies in Quantum Entanglement Thermodynamics (QET), spacetime foam simulations (QSF1), quantum chemical accuracy modeling, and AI-driven missile defense systems. As the author of three major books—Quantum 2050, Quantum Echoes, and the upcoming Quantum Warfare—he explores the future impact of quantum technology on science, defense, and society. With over 50 workshops conducted and more than 150 students mentored, Dr. Ahmed plays a pivotal role in shaping the next generation of quantum leaders. Under his leadership, CETQAP became the first institute in the world to develop Quantum Nursery Rhymes, making quantum physics engaging and accessible to children. As a central figure in Pakistan’s participation in the International Year of Quantum 2025, Dr. Zuhair Ahmed continues to bridge research, education, and industry—ensuring that quantum science remains at the cutting edge of technological progress.
