The Economics of Quantum Innovation


Listen Later

How do we move quantum computing from scientific milestone to measurable business value? 

It’s not an easy question to answer. 

When I first started covering this tech even the physicists charged with building such machines doubted the feasibility of the whole idea. That's no longer the case today, but the bar for quantum, especially compared to AI, remains almost impossibly high. 

This episode was taped before a live audience at Web Summit, Europe's largest tech conference, in Lisbon, Portugal.


We Meet:  

Alice & Bob Co-founder & CEO Théau Peronnin 

Planqc Co-founder & CEO Alex Glaetzle
