about the session
Learn from industry leaders how quantum computing has emerged from the laboratories as a powerful tool that is now transforming key sectors and disciplines.
Dive into the exciting world of quantum computing, where cutting-edge technology is moving beyond the laboratory and into real-world applications. Industry leaders from Microsoft, Quantinuum, IBM, and IonQ, will provide an accessible overview of quantum computing's potential to transform key sectors and disciplines. Panelists will address common misconceptions about quantum computing, separating hype from reality and providing clarity on what quantum computers can and cannot do (at least for now).
Learn more about industry case studies already leveraging quantum computing to solve real-world problems, and how early adopters are gaining a competitive advantage through quantum technology – such as accelerating drug discovery, optimizing financial portfolios, logistics and manufacturing processes, and improving materials science.
Learn about the latest trends in quantum computing, including hardware advancements, software development, and the growing quantum ecosystem. Learn about opportunities and challenges in the transition phase as the quantum era takes shape - including key topics of immediate urgency for all businesses such as post-quantum cryptography, quantum-safe, and the hybrid world where classical and quantum computing co-exist.
