NICE, France, June 14: Warning about the potential dangers of quantum computers breaking traditional encryption systems, QNu Labs CEO Sunil Gupta showcased the company’s “quantum security dome,” which he described as a “non-hackable communication system.”
“We are the first quantum tech company in India. We have built the world’s first quantum security dome, which is a non-hackable communication system. The world is in grave danger today. AI and quantum computers are going to break encryption, which underpins our digital economy, so this quantum security becomes paramount,” Gupta told ANI in France.
The CEO said that with the threat of encryption being broken by quantum computers, the entire world would need to migrate to the new technology “in the next three to five years.”
QNu Labs claims to have developed a quantum security platform that brings together “everything.” According to the company, it has built a “quantum security operating system for enterprises” called QShield.
“QShield provides a single API for applications, abstracting the complexity underneath,” the QNu Labs website states.
Gupta showcased the technology at Bharat Innovates 2026 at the Palais des Expositions in Nice, France, where India’s premier deep-tech innovations were displayed on a global stage. The event featured 120 groundbreaking startups and more than 20 institutes of excellence across 13 critical technology sectors.
The co-founder and CEO of AgniKul Cosmos, a satellite and reusable rocket company, also expressed gratitude for the opportunity to showcase Indian technology on the world stage.
“We are grateful to the government for giving us the opportunity to build an ecosystem of vendors, investors, and customers. The strong message being conveyed through this is that the government is showcasing India’s credibility to the world,” said AgniKul Cosmos co-founder Moin.
Similarly, Raphe mPhibr Chairman Vikash Mishra highlighted the company’s role in India’s defense ecosystem.
“We are India’s largest drone manufacturing company. We supply to all the forces and play a crucial role in India’s defense ecosystem,” Mishra said.
Earlier, while addressing the inauguration of Bharat Innovates 2026, French President Emmanuel Macron said the Indo-French relationship had evolved beyond traditional diplomacy into a “deep reality.”
Speaking alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Macron emphasized that India’s role as a global powerhouse is now central to France’s strategic, industrial, and academic vision for the 21st century.
Beyond the International Solar Alliance, the two nations are also exploring nuclear energy cooperation, including Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), to ensure decarbonized power and energy self-reliance.
Prime Minister Modi described the Bharat Innovates initiative as an invitation to the world to collaborate with India in shaping the future of global innovation, asserting that the country has evolved from being a technology adopter to a technology provider.
“A decade ago, the world saw India primarily as a technology adopter. Today, however, India is rapidly emerging as a technology provider,” Modi said.
