Interview with Daniela Herrmann:
1. What are the core subjects of your keynote speeches?
Dynex positions itself as a Quantum-as-a-Service (QaaS) platform focused on neuromorphic and quantum-inspired computing to solve real-world, industrial-scale optimization problems.
- Dynex Moonshots serves as the strategic and investment-oriented arm of the Dynex ecosystem, supporting high-impact, long-term initiatives in nature, health, society, and space exploration.
- Both organizations emphasize ethical responsibility, transparency, and accessibility in the development and deployment of advanced computing technologies.
Based on Dynex’s mission and the work of Dynex Moonshots, my keynote speeches typically center around the following themes:
1. The Future Roadmap for Quantum & Neuromorphic Computing
- How we evolve from GPU-based quantum emulation toward dedicated neuromorphic and silicon-based quantum hardware
- A long-term (10+ years) vision for scaling the Dynex architecture and positioning it within the global quantum computing landscape
2. Real-World Applications and Use Cases
How Dynex technology addresses complex optimization challenges, including:
- Supply chain and logistics
- Energy efficiency and sustainability
- Healthcare, biology, and drug discovery
- Environmental protection and climate modeling
3. Dynex Moonshots: High-Impact Global Initiatives
How Moonshots applies advanced computation to large-scale societal challenges, such as:
- Nature conservation
- Longevity and health research
- Social innovation and infrastructure
- Future-oriented scientific exploration, including space-related research
4. Ethics, Transparency & Responsible Use of Advanced Computing
- Governance frameworks for responsible quantum and AI technologies
- Ethical and technical validation mechanisms
- Transparency systems such as blockchain-based computation verification
5. Ecosystem Building, Partnerships & Market Strategy
- Collaboration across enterprises, research institutions, NGOs, and investment partners
- Positioning Dynex as a scalable, accessible computing ecosystem rather than a closed, experimental platform
- Strategies for integrating developers, customers, and infrastructure providers into a unified network
2. Which audience or which branch do you reach with your speech?
My talks resonate especially with audiences who operate at the intersection of advanced technology, innovation, and real-world problem-solving. These themes are particularly relevant for:
- Enterprises and research teams dealing with complex optimization, simulation, or large-scale computational challenges
- Investors, technology strategists, and innovation leaders seeking long-term, high-impact deep-tech opportunities
- Organizations prioritizing ethical, transparent, and sustainable adoption of emerging technologies
- Professionals and decision-makers tracking the practical evolution of quantum and neuromorphic computing as it moves from theory to real-world deployment
My audience typically consists of leaders and experts who want to understand how next-generation computing can be applied meaningfully and responsibly at scale.
3. Are you a PREMIUM SPEAKER? Where do you get your insights from?
I am a premium speaker because I have lived versatility my entire life.
As a polymath, I never confined myself to a single discipline. I explored finance, technology, and human systems with deep curiosity not just academically, but through real-world experience. I pushed boundaries, tested assumptions, and learned firsthand how different systems operate, where they excel, and where they ultimately fail.
This breadth allows me to connect insights across fields and translate complex ideas into messages people can understand, feel, and apply. I don’t speak from theory alone, I speak from lived experience.
A defining part of my perspective is ethics. Throughout my journey, I have seen how many of today’s economic, technological, and societal structures have become unbalanced. Innovation accelerates, but responsibility does not always keep pace.
I believe technology and finance must serve humanity not the other way around. Real progress requires balance: between growth and ethics, efficiency and empathy, individual ambition and collective well-being. My talks invite audiences to reimagine this balance.
My insights come from curiosity and conviction.
Curiosity to understand how things truly work, beyond surface-level explanations. Conviction to question systems that are out of balance or no longer serve people.
I draw strength from exploring the space between what is possible and what is right. I am energized by pushing boundaries not for disruption’s sake, but to create meaning, responsibility, and sustainable progress.
I speak because insight only has value when it is shared and because meaningful change begins with understanding.
4. What will be in the future? Does «time» play an important role in your work?
The future is not a distant point on a timeline. When we stop viewing time as strictly linear, we recognize that the future already exists in the present shaped by what we think, decide, and build today.
What we imagine in our mind our values, intentions, and vision of progress begins to materialize long before it is visible. The future is not something we wait for, it is something we continuously create.
This raises a deeper question: How should we understand time and space as technology changes our relationship with complex systems?
As technological capabilities evolve especially in AI, quantum computing, and advanced system architectures causality becomes less linear. Modern systems are interconnected, self-reinforcing, and accelerated. Decisions propagate almost instantly across organizations, economies, and even societies.
So, does time still matter?
Yes, but in a different way.
Time is no longer only a physical dimension, it has become a strategic resource.
In competitive technology environments, time determines:
- how long an advantage can be sustained,
- how quickly systems can be adapted or redesigned,
- and whether innovation creates lasting impact or merely temporary acceleration.
When a technology is truly at the frontier, time becomes a narrow window of opportunity. The key questions shift from speed to stewardship:
- How much time do we have to reshape systems responsibly?
- How do we introduce continuity and stability into rapid change?
Time vs. Continuity
Meaningful progress does not come from speed alone, but from continuity.
Continuity means:
- embedding values into technology,
- designing systems that evolve sustainably,
- and ensuring that innovation is not just faster, but fundamentally better.
The future will not belong to those who innovate the fastest but to those who use time intentionally, align technology with responsibility, and build systems that endure.
Core Message
The future is not about tomorrow. It is about today’s mindset.
Time is not an obstacle it is a design principle. And continuity is what transforms innovation into meaningful impact.
5. Tell us your life motto? What do you want to give your listeners to take with them?
We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking that created them.
Quantum technologies will challenge our assumptions, our models, and even the way we understand reality itself, so let’s stay curious.
Curiosity is not just a mindset, it is a responsibility. It allows us to question old systems, explore new possibilities, and approach complexity with openness instead of fear.
What I want audiences to take with them is this:
Innovation begins the moment we allow ourselves to think differently.
If we stay curious, courageous, and willing to rethink what we believe is possible, we can shape a future that is not only more advanced, but more meaningful and human.
