The Post-Quantum World

Quantum computing needs logical, error-corrected qubits to reach the ultimate goal of fault-tolerant systems that can change the world. Without logical qubits, we won’t be able to have production-ready business use cases that are pure quantum. Is it too early to be thinking about creating these “perfect” qubits? One company says it’s already tackling the problem with a new take on the old quantum-classical Schrödinger’s Cat thought experiment. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about cat qubits with Théau Peronnin from Alice&Bob. For more on Alice&Bob, visit https://alice-bob.com/.

Standardization is something we take for granted in classical information technology. But when it comes to quantum computing, are we all speaking the same language? In addition to making neutral-atom quantum systems, Pasqal is trying to ensure all aspects of QIS will interoperate going forward. Standardization has always helped businesses adopt new technologies because they are more consistent and reliable as a result. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Catherine Lefebvre from Pasqal and learn how they’re doing more than making room-temperature quantum computers.For more on Pasqal, visit www.pasqal.com/.Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/postquantum to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.         Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on Twitter and Instagram: @KonstantHacker and follow Protiviti Technology on LinkedIn and Twitter: @ProtivitiTech.          Contact Konstantinos at konstantinos.karagiannis@protiviti.com.          Questions and comments are welcome!      Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.

Interconnect has been a quantum computing buzzword for quite some time and with good reason. Entangling qubits between separate quantum computers is the key to scaling and building fault-tolerant systems. IonQ recently doubled down on this approach by acquiring a company that specializes in the technology. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Aharon Brodutch about how trapped ions will soon be talking to each other across rooms or even greater distances. The goal is to have larger resulting systems that can solve practical business problems in the future.For more on IonQ, visit https://ionq.com/.Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/postquantum to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.         Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on Twitter and Instagram: @KonstantHacker and follow Protiviti Technology on LinkedIn and Twitter: @ProtivitiTech.          Contact Konstantinos at konstantinos.karagiannis@protiviti.com.          Questions and comments are welcome!          Theme song by David Schwartz.
