The Quantum Spin

Here is something genuinely unusual: a podcast about PR and marketing communications specifically for the quantum technology industry. Veronica Combs, a quantum tech editor, writer, and PR professional, hosts this biweekly show through HKA Marketing Communications. If that sounds niche, it is, and that is exactly why it fills a gap no other quantum podcast does. Across 44 episodes since 2023, Combs interviews quantum industry leaders, scientists, entrepreneurs, and communicators about how the quantum tech sector tells its story. How do you explain quantum computing to investors? How do startup founders build credibility in a field where the technology is still maturing? How should companies communicate about quantum capabilities without overpromising? These questions get real, practical answers. Episodes run 20 to 37 minutes, making them easy to fit into a busy schedule. The guest list includes people you would not typically hear on a standard quantum science podcast, including marketers, PR strategists, and business development leads who are shaping how the quantum industry presents itself to the world. For anyone working in quantum technology on the business or communications side, this is essential listening. Even for pure science types, it offers a fascinating window into how the commercial quantum ecosystem actually works behind the scenes. The 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, while from a small pool, reflects a loyal audience that values this unique perspective.
