As part of this initiative, the company had several strategic goals. Podcast September 6, 2023 Podcast | Solving Energy Distribution Challenges— with Atom Computing We can easily extrapolate that quantum computing will excel at large optimisations that challenge classical systems. One such mammoth problem is power-grid energy distribution. How has one neutral atom system started to tackle this already? Join Host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Rob Hays from Atom Computing, where they discuss a partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy.Guest:… Podcast Transcript September 8, 2023 Transcript | Schrödinger’s Cat Qubits— with Alice&Bob Quantum computing needs logical, error-corrected qubits to reach the ultimate goal of fault-tolerant systems that can change the world. Without logical qubits, we won’t be able to have production-ready business use cases that are pure quantum. Is it too early to be thinking about creating these “perfect” qubits? One company says it’s already tackling the problem with a new take on the old quantum… Client Story September 14, 2023 Organisational Changes Drive Seamless Transformation of Back-Office Processes to Propel Business Strategy Protiviti partnered with leading technology company to assess, redesign, and standardise procurement, accounting, and finance functions. The company’s overall goal was to eliminate manual and disparate back-office processes to create capacity for strategic and growth objectives. 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… Whitepaper March 11, 2024 Healthcare IA Benchmarking Internal audit (IA) functions continue to undergo significant changes ranging from the expanded use of emerging technologies, including robust data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI), and options on where their people work (i.e., remote, hybrid or onsite). IA functions within healthcare organizations have continued to evolve and adapt— some faster than others. Keep the pace by comparing… Client Story March 13, 2024 Global Retailer Goes Digital: Revitalising Store Operations and Enhancing Community Commitment Protiviti leveraged Microsoft Power BI to help this client transform its operational analytics.

Podcast March 20, 2024 Podcast | Quantum Computing in Particle Physics – with Dr. Harry Cliff In 1981, Richard Feynman gave a keynote that proposed simulating physics with computers. We’ve come a long way with the resulting quantum computers, and you may have heard about business use cases for them. But how much progress has been made in using the machines to understand the universe? Who better to ask than Dr. Harry Cliff from the Large Hadron Collider? He discusses how quantum computers… Load More
