The Institution of Engineering and Technology is hosting a series of webinars on Quantum Engineering, raising awareness of the new opportunities created in engineering by the emerging quantum technologies. This is the final webinar of the series of six.

Speaker: Dr Michael Cuthbert

Abstract: In this webinar building on the prior series webinar from the Quantum Computing and Simulation Hub, the National Quantum Computing Centre will be introduced with an overview of its strategy and purpose. The Centre design and technical roadmap will be described in brief with the main focus of the talk around emerging applications and use case development given market deployment of quantum computing in the UK. In anticipation of application impact the uptake and challenges of creating a ‘Quantum Ready’ economy will be described. Case studies in mechanical engineering, materials science and financial services will be reviewed.

This event is part of a series of events on Quantum Engineering hosted by the IET, further information about all events can be found on the event webpage
