Grégoire Ribordy, id Quantique
In the spirit of the Quantum Entrepreneurship lecture series, Dr. Ribordy will discuss his experience with going from idea to market, the difficulties and challenges he faced in doing so, and what the future holds for quantum cryptography.
Alex Parent, Institute for Quantum Computing
We will demonstrate a tool for visually constructing and simulating quantum circuits. The tool is a work in progress, and we are looking for feedback from the community on what features would be useful for their research.
From invisibility cloaks to teleportation, Harry Potter’s world is filled with mystery and wonder. Yet this magical world is not so different from the world we inhabit. Just beneath the surface of our ordinary lives is a strange quantum reality.
