Synopsis
The presentation would consist of 4 parts:
- Part I: Quantum Computer Concepts
The objective of Part I is to review the key vocabulary about
Quantum Computing (Qubit, gates, parallelism, entanglement, teleportation..) so
that non specialists can put some concept or intuition behind the words they
see in the newspapers, on internet…
- Part II: Quantum Computer Market
Part II is to give an overview of the Quantum Computer
ecosystem worldwide so that participants can realize the impact of the
technology in the combining years and have some idea about the main players.
- Part III: Financial Institutions activities in Quantum
Computing
Part III will be based on high level non confidential
information about what financial institutions that QuantFi visited in NY,
London, EU and Japan are doing and want to achieve in the coming years.
- Part IV: When will my Company benefit from Quantum
Computing?
This is the most difficult topic since there is probably
around 100 players working on Quantum Computing hardware, with breakthroughs
happening regularly and the possibility to become suddenly viable commercially.
