About Peter Franco

Head of Design at IQM

Hey there, I’m Peter—a Photographer, Videographer, and Creative based in Helsinki, Finland.

I’m passionate about capturing stories and emotions through visuals—whether it’s portraits, landscapes, fitness, or family moments. Alongside photography, I also create video content and am currently working on a short film project. My work has been featured in Helsingin Sanomat, Helsinki Times, and Aalto University publications, and I’m proud to be recognized in the Forbes Under 30 community.

With over two decades of experience in design and creative direction, I began my journey in web design and grew into shaping full digital products and brand identities. Today, I’m a Team Lead Designer at IQM Quantum Computers, where I lead all creative output across the company—from brand identity and marketing materials to UI/UX design for digital platforms.

What sets me apart is how my passion for photography and videography complements my design work. My eye for composition, storytelling, and aesthetics carries into every project—whether I’m crafting a visual identity, refining a user journey, or creating content that brings technology to life.

Always curious and open to new challenges, I thrive at the intersection of design, storytelling, and technology.

What stood out to me most is how honest he is in a very grounded, humble way. He tells you clearly what needs improvement, yet it never feels harsh or ego-driven. You can tell he genuinely wants you to grow.”
