ARE WE READY FOR IT? </span></span></span></b><br> </p> <p>Quantum Computing: so many questions - Why? Which? When? Where?</p> <p><b><u>WHY</u>:</b> Are quantum computers just a faster version of what we have now? Eamonn will take us through why quantum computers are truly revolutionary and why, when we have full quantum cryptography, things will ‘never be the same’ both in business and society.<br> <br><b><u>WHICH</u>:</b> Which industries, if any, are going to be most impacted by quantum computing? Eamonn outlines the sorts of calculations that quantum computing is ‘good at’ and hence the advantages it can bring to certain industries. <br> <br><b><u>WHEN</u>:</b> There has been much hype over the past decade about quantum computers revolutionising commerce yet nothing substantial has happened as yet! Eamonn will discuss what actually is happening behind the scenes in the quantum computing sector and what is expected to happen in the next five years.<br> <br><b><u>WHERE</u>:</b> Using specific information, Eamonn will outline what is happening in WA and in Australia, with respect to quantum computing. <br><br><b>What actions do you need to take now to be quantum ready?</b><br> </p> <p>What the presentation will cover: -</p> <ul><li>Overview on Quantum physics and Quantum computing</li><li>Optimisation and simulation solutions</li><li>The quantum cloud and quantum cryptography</li><li>Quantum computing achievements to-date</li><li>When will we see the first quantum application?</li><li>What can we expect over the coming years?</li><li>Which industries are going to benefit most?</li><li>Current Investment levels in quantum computing</li><li>What’s happening here in WA?</li><li>How to become quantum ready</li></ul> <p>Post presentation light refreshments provided.<br><br><br><b>IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ATTENDEES</b><br>Due to the importance of contact tracing for COVID-19 purposes if required, it is important to have your attendance registered.<br><br>On arrival at registration, please make sure to have your event confirmation e-mail with QR code ready to present where your attendance will be recorded.
