VISION by Protiviti interviews Dr. Ian Oppermann, the New South Wales Government’s Chief Data Scientist working within the Department of Customer Service and expert on the future impact of technology on society, about how we’ll use the metaverse in the future. Dr. Oppermann is also an Industry Professor at the University of Technology Sydney and served as CEO of the New South Wales Data Analytics Centre from…

In the wake of a world-changing pandemic and amid current uncertainties in the global economy, organisations have made, and are making, some significant adjustments in their operations. For most, the procurement function is at or near the top of the list. These changes are critical for procurement leaders to navigate and manage as global supply challenges become more complex and organisations continue to grapple…

AI is disrupting almost every industry right now, so it’s not surprising that machine learning techniques are being used to improve quantum computers and accelerate the coming of fault-tolerant systems. Applications may have an advantageous business impact sooner than we thought. Join Protiviti’s Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Michael Hush from Q-CTRL and learn how they’re squeezing a whole lot extra out…

Well, it looks like a recession is coming. Or maybe it's not. Or maybe it is. It seems like it's been a long wait for the other economic shoe to drop. And in the meantime, many questions are arising around managing costs in organisations. CFOs and finance leaders continue to have a lot of questions, and get even more from their internal stakeholders and customers, about projections, cost management, supply chains…

Quantum Information Science just might have commercial impact before quantum computing achieves error correction. All sorts of vertical industries will be able to take advantage of quantum clocks and sensors, enabling better navigation and even “seeing” through miles of solid Earth. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about these amazing devices and what we can expect from cold atom computers with Bob…

As manufacturing organisations assess new ways to innovate and transform their operations, one area they continue to explore is the development of agile factories. In this episode, we talk with Protiviti Managing Directors Sharon Lindstrom, David Petrucci and Robert Giacobbe. Together, they explore the concept of agile factories and the importance of building flexibility and adaptability in the manufacturing sector…

Cracking RSA in web traffic is primarily what people think of when they hear about the quantum threat to cryptography. But there are lots of protocols in peril, especially in a typical corporate environment. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Suvi Lampila from SSH to find out how the security giant is working on securing data flows you may not have considered. Guest: Suvi Lampila from SSH

We’ve covered several types of quantum computing hardware on this show, some available, some still forthcoming. Neutral atom is a newer addition to the ranks of systems accessible on the cloud. How does it work? What kinds of real-world business use cases is it excelling at already? Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Alex Keesling from QuEra about this new approach to high qubit counts. Guest:…

Top-performing internal audit groups share similar traits: They focus more on streamlined, tailored, impactful communications and reporting. They evolve and adapt routinely, and they push themselves to find and build talent and resources from both within and outside their organisations. But guess what? Fewer than six in 10 internal audit functions have access to the talent they need across any of the 12 Next-…

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 specialises in the technology. Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Aharon Brodutch about how trapped ions will soon be talking…
