Let’s Build the Future of Quantum Finance Together
Quantum computing is not ready yet. And it seems we’ll have to wait a few more years before the technology reaches practical applications. Knowing this, it is imperative for us — teachers and advocates of quantum computing — to promote it to the next generation of experts, whether in hardware development or real-world use cases. The goal of my talk is to encourage young students to take action today, so that in a few years, they’ll be the ones leading the charge with new and ingenious ideas.
Dr. Oswaldo Zapata, Expert in Quantum Computing in Finance
19:10 – 19:40 CEST
Secrets to Working in Quantum
How do we orient and inspire people interested in driving the development of quantum information science? By focusing broadly on how this technology will evolve and the range of skills needed to support it. From a learner’s perspective, this represents a range of career opportunities that is growing and changing. Christopher Bishop has developed a workshop to provide perspective on how the quantum workforce is evolving and guidance on the myriad options for people interested in contributing.
Christopher Bishop, Workplace Futurist, TEDx Speaker and former IBM
