Quantum.Tech 2024
23rd September – Quantum.Tech Cryptography Spotlight Day | 24th – 25th September - Main Conference
Twickenham Stadium, London
CRYPTOGRAPHY SPOTLIGHT - Monday 23rd September
Discover the Future of Secure Communications: Join us for an immersive one-day Quantum Cryptography Spotlight to open this year’s Quantum.Tech Europe., where cutting-edge quantum technology meets the world of cybersecurity.
In an era of unprecedented technological advancement, quantum computing poses both incredible opportunities and formidable threats to information security. The Quantum Cryptography Bootcamp at Quantum.Tech USA offers a unique opportunity for professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts to delve into the fascinating realm of quantum cryptography.
This one-day event will bring together experts, thought leaders, and practitioners from the quantum and cybersecurity fields to provide a comprehensive introduction to quantum cryptography, its significance in the digital age, and its potential to revolutionize secure communication, financial services and government.

TrUE vs. QKD vs. PQC – what’s the future?
Quantum Security and Cryptography
- How do TrUE (Trusted Execution Environments), QKD (Quantum Key Distribution), and PQC (Post-Quantum Cryptography) technologies address the potential threat of quantum computing?
- How do TrUE, QKD, and PQC differ in terms of implementation complexity, cost, and integration into existing systems? What are the real-world implications of these trade-offs?
- What are the major challenges that exist around interoperability and standardisation?
- How might these technologies evolve in the coming years, and what impact could they have on the cybersecurity landscape as quantum computing continues to advance? Are there potential synergies or complementary roles for these technologies to play in securing the digital world?
