QuTech’s Post

🇪🇺 Reflecting on Quantum Europe 2024 🇪🇺 I had the privilege of attending Quantum Europe in Brussels two weeks ago, and it was an inspiring experience to engage with industry leaders and experts about the future of #quantum #computing. I shared some key insights during the panel discussion: 1—Only the most complex problems are suited for quantum solutions, and industries like #chemistry and #materials science stand to gain the most. Collaboration with these sectors is essential to exploring potential use cases and preparing them for transformation. 2—Quantum computing will coexist with AI and high-performance computing (HPC). This integrated hybrid system will maximize our collective potential and enhance our ability to tackle complex challenges. 3—Cross-sector collaborations are crucial for driving innovation and accelerating advancements in quantum technologies. By working together, we can unlock new opportunities and solutions. 4—The #European #quantum #computing ecosystem is very strong and could play a leading role in helping Europe recover tech sovereignty. This involves thoughtful investment and technical strategies to navigate the evolving landscape. Thank you to Forum Europe for organizing such an insightful conference. It was a pleasure to connect with so many passionate individuals committed to shaping the future of quantum technology in Europe. #QuantumEU24 Samira Nik, PhD Pascal Maillot Gustav Kalbe Axel Ferrazzini Tomas Jakimavicius Jérémy Lambot

Collaboration, Not Competition: Unlocking the UK’s Quantum Future At the techSPARK uk Bristol Tech Festival, leaders from academia, industry, and government explored how national collaboration can drive the UK’s quantum innovation. Highlighting regional strengths like Bristol’s quantum photonics and Glasgow’s laser technologies, they emphasised that cooperation avoids duplication and boosts global investment appeal. With the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) paving the way, shared testbeds and public-private partnerships are critical to turning research into real-world solutions. The message is clear: by uniting regional expertise under a shared vision, the UK can solidify its position as a global leader in quantum technology. How will your organisation help shape this collaborative future? Full article in comments below 👇 #QuantumComputing #Innovation #BristolTechFestival #UKTechLeadership

Quantum Computing in Finland: Paving the Way for Tomorrow In the world of tech innovation, Finland has made its mark with Nokia and Rovio’s Angry Birds. But the country is now setting its sights on an ambitious new frontier: quantum computing. With investments reaching €90 million, Finland is racing to build a 300-qubit quantum computer by scaling up its first devices, HELMI and LUMI, in partnership with VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and IQM. Finland’s success is powered by strong collaborations between Aalto University, VTT, and quantum start-ups like Bluefors and Algorithmiq. Companies such as Algorithmiq are developing quantum algorithms to solve life sciences challenges, and IQM has already raised €200 million to scale quantum innovations. Government support, led by Business Finland and Research Council of Finland, has been instrumental, and the newly formed Finnish Quantum Flagship (FQF) under Professor Peter Liljeroth aims to drive research, training, and a skilled talent pipeline for quantum technology. Finland’s approach combines education, research, and private investment to create a robust ecosystem for quantum breakthroughs. By fostering local and international talent and collaboration, this Nordic nation is positioning itself as a forerunner in the global quantum race.

The next event you can find me at and why you definitely shouldn't miss it... Just as AI was not (or far below) on your radar 5 years ago, it will probably be no different with quantum computing today. Or is that an assumption? It still seems like a distant future and we are yet to fully understand what the impact will be until we can effectively experience it for ourselves. The thing is, once you can experience it for yourself, you are too late. The importance of data and technology are almost becoming a catchword within healthcare. Everyone talks about it but we often don't get beyond some frameworks for data sharing and interoperability. Quantum computing is fundamentally different from classical computing due to its use of qubits, superposition, entanglement and interference. It has the potential to solve certain classes of problems much faster and more efficiently than classical computers, but many challenges remain before it can be widely adopted and applied to real-world scenarios. So if you want to talk (which I definitely do) with quantum experts and improve your understanding of it, you'd better attend Quantum Circle Summit in November. More informatie here👇
