These and other questions will be answered, or at least hotly debated, by our panel of scientists from academia and industry at the forefront of quantum information science. Come hear the inside scoop on where quantum technology is now, what quantum devices we can expect to see in the next decade, and whether “science-fiction” like technologies, e.g. the teleporter, could be possible!

What is a quantum computer and can it be hacked?

How can quantum clocks be used for navigation and to monitor high speed investment trading?

Can a quantum algorithm help design new pharmaceuticals?

How does a portable quantum gravimeter find hidden aquifers and mineral deposits?

“All paths great and small lead to the most powerful machines our universe allows”
