Decoding Quantum Computing:
The Future of Information
Contact Event Organiser
About this event
It is estimated that the Quantum technology industry will be worth a projected $6 billion and employ 19,400 Australians by 2045. The Australian Government made significant investments in the past two years into Quantum, and major organisations are getting more involved in the research and use of Quantum Computing.
In 2023, the Australian Government shared their National Quantum Strategy to build
the world’s first error‑corrected quantum computer in Australia. In April 2024 the Australian Government announced that the University of Sydney had been selected to lead the operation of Quantum Australia with the goal of growing the quantum industry.
So what it is Quantum Computing and why is there so much excitement about it?
Join ACS and our panelists as we explain the complexities of Quantum Computing and discuss the following:
- Practical application of Quantum Computing
- Basics of Quantum
- Current limitations
- Ethical considerations
- Getting started with Quantum
