QDNL appoints Adriaan Rol to the QDNL Supervisory Board
QDNL is pleased to announce the appointment of Adriaan Rol to the Supervisory Board (Raad van Toezicht), effective 1 October 2026.
Adriaan is the co-founder and executive director of OrangeQS, a well-established scale-up within the QDNL network and a provider of automated test equipment for quantum chips (ATE-Q). His work has strengthened the Dutch quantum ecosystem through national and international collaborations, commercial engagements with tangible results, and technical contributions to the future of quantum chip technologies.
In his current tenure at OrangeQS, he has defined and executed the product roadmap from prototype to commercially deployed, multi-million-euro test systems - specific expertise he will bring to his role on the supervisory board.
“I am delighted to welcome Adriaan Rol to our supervisory board. His vision and experience in the development of start-ups and scale-ups will be invaluable as we advance an area of such high priority for the Dutch quantum ecosystem."
"QDNL has been instrumental in the emergence of the Dutch quantum ecosystem and helped position it on a global scale. As quantum enters a new phase of industrialisation and scale-up, turning that position into lasting economic impact will call for new approaches. I am excited to contribute my experience to that next chapter."
Adriaan’s earlier work focused on control of programmable superconducting quantum systems, and he was a key contributor to Quantum Inspire. He holds a PhD (cum laude) from TU Delft.
