Abstract :
Quantum Computing is rapidly moving onto the strategic agenda of organizations worldwide. It is designed to tackle complex problems and serves as a complement, not a replacement, to Classical Computing. What truly sets Quantum Computing apart? What are the key characteristics of its hardware, software, and applications? Which hardware architectures exist, and how are Quantum Algorithms developed? And what skills will professionals need in the new "Quantum Era"?
The speaker will explore short-, mid-, and long-term use cases, look at early adopters, and examine the synergy between Quantum Computing and AI. You will also discover how both junior and senior professionals can begin their Quantum Journey.
