Red Hat embraces quantum supremacy as it looks to the future SHARE Since its founding in 1993, Red Hat Inc. has seen significant growth and witnessed first hand the transformation from an analog to a digital economy. With years of experience under its belt, Red Hat is looking on the horizon to prepare for emerging technology with its partnership with IBM Corp., giving it a front-row seat to technological progress. The software company employs a variety of experts across different departments to maintain the massive overhead of running a large tech business. “We typically organize our teams around horizontal technology sectors,” said Stephen Watt (pictured, right), distinguished engineer and head of emerging technologies at Red Hat. “I have an edge team, cloud networking team, a cloud storage team, application platforms team. We’ve got different areas that we attack work and opportunities, but the good ideas can come from a variety of different places, so we try and leverage co-creation with our customers and our partners.”
