Overview
Are you curious about how quantum computing can be used for your business? Quantum computing is emerging as a transformative technology with the potential to solve problems beyond the reach of classical computers. This session will provide an accessible introduction to the fundamental principles of quantum computing, including key concepts such as qubits, superposition, and quantum circuits, pathway towards fault tolerant quantum computing alongside HPCs. The session will feature a live Qiskit demonstration, showcasing the latest developments and capabilities of IBM’s open-source quantum software platform. Participants will learn how Qiskit can be used to build, optimise, and execute quantum circuits on real quantum computers, offering a practical view of how developers, researchers, and innovators can begin exploring quantum applications today.
