Managing this risk effectively should be a core competency for all businesses — and the board should lead the way.After decades of globalisation shaping the world order, businesses are now forced to accept a new reality. Geopolitical risk is an ever-growing threat with far-reaching potential consequences. This risk arises from a… Newsletter December 13, 2023 Blind Spots in the Boardroom A look back at business failures often reveals blind spots that either concealed a dysfunctional culture or led to a lack of understanding, strategic error or missed opportunities. Is the board aware of the organisation’s blind spots, and is it addressing them?We’ve all heard the adage that what we don’t know can be more damaging to reputation, brand image, market standing and competitive… Podcast December 13, 2023 Podcast | Quantum Dots: From Nobel Prize to Silicon-Based QPUs— with SemiQon The 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots. Physics is also interested in these little marvels, and they may have a big impact in quantum computing. We need many more qubits of high-quality to tackle complex business problems and use cases. How will silicon-based quantum processing units (QPUs) boost scalability for increased performance into the… Podcast Transcript November 28, 2023 Transcript | Build Your Own Quantum Hardware Platform— with OpenQuantum We’ve done plenty of episodes where there is a piece of software or cloud platform users can try, usually for the purposes of making coding or algorithmic development easier. Coding naturally seems to be the quickest way to get involved in quantum computing, but we’ve never discussed actually building quantum hardware at home! Find out how to start learning the engineering side of quantum… Podcast March 6, 2024 Podcast | Logical Qubits Arrive - with QuEra Quantum computing needs error-corrected, logical qubits to exit the noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) era and bring real advantage to practical business and other use cases. A recent experiment at Harvard succeeded at creating 48 logical qubits on a neutral atom platform, and the techniques will be implemented in production systems in the future. We may have 100 logical qubits by 2026! Join… Flash Report April 4, 2025 Time to Act: SEC Issues Final Climate-Related Disclosure Rules UPDATE: The newly constituted SEC has said it would not defend the climate rule in court. This paves the way for the eventual and likely repeal of the rule, which has been stayed judicially and administratively since shortly after it was originally approved.On March 6, 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved its long-awaited — and, for many, controversial — new rule, The… Blogs November 9, 2023 Building financial resilience In the rapidly evolving business landscape, chief financial officers (CFOs) and finance directors (FDs) face several challenges, from the unpredictable economic environment to the ability to attract and retain top talent and the organisation’s resistance to change. How can today’s finance professionals best align people, processes and technology? On 14 September, clients in the finance and… Podcast Transcript February 9, 2022 Transcript | Coding Quantum Computers for Free It’s amazing how many programming languages and interfaces exist in quantum computing already. What if there was a way to learn and use all of them without installing anything? qBraid is making that possible with a site you can join for free today. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Kanav Setia from qBraid. Guest: Kanav Setia– CEO qBraid Podcast Transcript September 9, 2022 Transcript | High-Fidelity Qubits Getting to fault-tolerant quantum computing requires improving qubit quality. The dream of engineers is the “four nines,” or 99.99 percent fidelity. Quantinuum, well known for its H1 trapped-ion system, has found a way to achieve this elusive goal. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Tony Ransford. Guest Speaker: Tony Ransford – Quantinuum Podcast Transcript April 13, 2022 Transcript | Building Sustainable Operations and Supply Chains It should come as no surprise that, according to research from Protiviti, ESG metrics and measurement are among the top priorities for CFOs and finance teams to address, and a majority are substantially increasing the focus on and frequency of their ESG reporting. A key part of these efforts must be building sustainable operations and supply chains.But this only scratches the surface. Board… Load More
