Simone Severini is an Italian-born British computer scientist, Professor of Physics of Information at University College London, and Director of Quantum Computing at Amazon Web Services AWS.

He works in quantum information science and complex systems. Together with Adan Cabello and Andreas Winter, he defined a graph-theoretic framework for studying quantum contextuality, and together with Tomasz Konopka, Fotini Markopoulou, and Lee Smolin, he introduced a random graph model of spacetime called quantum graphity.[2][3]

Severini is an editor of Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A.
