The future of Quantum Computing

Tuesday, September 10, 2024 @ 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Join us on Sep 10 to explore the latest in Quantum computing in the wake of IEEE Quantum Week 2024. ​Exaion and Quandela will share their vision on the emergence of disruptive computing technologies, from state-of-the-art research and development to industry applications piloted by our partners. ​Industry leaders must have a strategy in place to future-proof their organizations with post-quantum cryptography (and particularly its impact on blockchain technologies), while they explore early use cases for quantum supremacy, if they want to capture the full benefits of this disruptive innovation. ​Similarly to AI and other technologies, Canadian businesses may need more time and resources to adopt quantum discoveries and inventions coming from academia, making them part of their innovation practice, in order to realize concrete business outcomes. ​To support Canadian innovation, Exaion & Quandela are installing two Quandela quantum computers in Canada, making it possible to develop concrete applications and strengthen the computing capacities of North American companies. This partnership aims to position Canada as a leader in quantum technologies, facilitating innovation and research in this area. ​Let’s meet at the Centre for Urban Innovation, on Gerrard Street, at Toronto Metropolitan University from 5 pm to 7 pm. Register today! ____ Exaion, a pioneer in sustainable digital services, supports businesses in adopting fast computing technologies (blockchain, cybersecurity, HPC, AI, quantum, etc.). Our raison d’être: creating solutions that combine computational power with sustainability, emphasizing cybersecurity and data sovereignty. ​Quandela is a European start up that provides photonic quantum computers that are modular, scalable, energy-efficient and accessible both on the cloud and on premise. We are committed to making advanced quantum computation accessible to all, empowering a vibrant community to innovate and create a better future.
