Quantum Finance

Elizabeth Iwasawa - RBC Director of Quantum

What does a quantum scientist do at a bank? How do you incorporate emerging technologies in one of the most regulated industries? How do you go from astroparticle physics to RBC?

Dr. Elizabeth Iwasawa, Director, Quantum, at RBC will discuss what it is like to work within the financial industry in comparison to others, how emerging technologies are tested and integrated into financial products and what keeps current research from gaining traction and industry adoption, and a “financial full-stack” view of where quantum sensing, communications, and computing can impact finance.
