Why should you care about developing a quantum-ready workforce?


Workforce Readiness Panel Discussion
A wide-ranging conversation discussing workforce preparation, readiness and deployment of a quantum-ready workforce.
* How to join the quantum workforce
* Drivers' businesses should be aware of
* Readiness and adoption of quantum technologies and the workforce it needs
* Government activities for adoption
* Connecting vendors and users


Workforce Planning Masterclass
How do we develop a business-ready quantum workforce and a quantum-ready business workforce?
* Quantum - classic workforce divide
* Workforce integration
* Transitioning skillsets
* Role of tech agnostics
* Non-technical quantum careers


1:00 PM Quantum Sensing in the real world – is this where Quantum Advantage is being reached?

  •  What strategic shifts should businesses make to stay competitive as quantum hardware evolves?
  • What real-world challenges have early adopters faced, and how can organizations prepare for smooth integration?
  • How can companies identify and capitalize on early quantum-driven competitive advantages today?
  • How close are we to building quantum sensors that are scalable, robust, and field-deployable?
  • In which real-world applications are quantum sensors already outperforming classical solutions?
  • What are the key challenges—technical, commercial, and regulatory—on the path to widespread adoption?

Exhibition Day 2

11:30 AM Quantum Security Landscape Across Civil, Industrial, and Military Domains

Quantum technologies are emerging as both a disruptive risk and a transformative opportunity for global security. This talk will provide a strategic overview of the quantum security landscape across Civil, Industrial, and Military domains, highlighting key timelines, dual-use challenges, and the policy and technological priorities that will shape the decade ahead.

12:00 PM What are national governments and federal institutions approaches to government security?

  • How are national governments adapting their security frameworks to address the unique challenges posed by emerging technologies like quantum and AI? 
  • What role do federal institutions play in creating global standards and protocols to ensure cybersecurity and national security? 
  • How can governments balance security needs with innovation, especially in areas like data privacy and digital transformation?
