Quantum Appoints Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Alberto C. Rosende to Board; Peter M. O'Rourke Resigns

Quantum appointed Maj. Gen. (Ret.) Alberto C. Rosende to its board effective October 12, 2026, and Peter M. O'Rourke resigned from the board and as president of Quantum Drones on the same date, according to TradingView.

Rosende's Appointment and O'Rourke's Exit

Rosende, 64, was appointed to fill a vacancy on the board, and the board determined he qualifies as independent and financially literate for audit committee membership. He was appointed to the audit, compensation and nomination committees.

Rosende has more than 37 years of U.S. Army service, including as former commanding general of the 63rd Readiness Division, and is a combat veteran. He has been chief executive officer of M2i Global since September 2024, and previously held payments and consulting roles. He holds a BS, an MS and an MA.

O'Rourke's resignation was not a result of disagreement with the company or Quantum Drones relating to operations, policies or practices. His employment agreement with Quantum Drones was terminated, and no successor was disclosed.

Quantum Systems, a separate company, said on September 14, 2026 that it introduced its first maritime drones, the Seavex surface hub and Subvex underwater vehicle, at a NATO exercise in Portugal, according to dev.ua.
