Madhu Trivikram Talluri, PhD, is Co-Founder and CTO of QuBeats, one of India's first deep-tech quantum sensing startups, pioneering GPS-free navigation and precision quantum measurement technologies.

An experimental physicist specializing in precision quantum measurements and ultrafast laser spectroscopy, Madhu was a postdoctoral scholar at UC Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where he developed advanced laser-based methods for light-matter interactions.

Madhu brings rare expertise in quantum magnetometry and atomic physics, applying cutting-edge research to real-world defence and industrial challenges at a time when quantum sensing is redefining navigation sovereignty globally.

At QuBeats, Madhu leads the technical development of quantum sensors, lasers, and metrology solutions targeting defence, aerospace, healthcare, and energy sectors, helping the company raise $11.9M across two funding rounds.

QuBeats won the prestigious ADITI 2.0 Defence Challenge, securing a Rs 25 crore (USD 3M) government grant to build an indigenous Quantum Positioning System for the Indian Navy, enabling GPS-denied navigation for naval ships and submarines.
