Is the board’s risk oversight process fit for purpose in today’s dynamic environment?Board engagement with risk and how it is managed has been a topic of interest for many years. While risk has always been present in every business, the… Podcast Transcript September 9, 2022 Transcript | Quantum Control Engineering with Q-CTRL Controlling a quantum computer can mean a lot of things. For Q-CTRL, it includes better error correction and tools that help improve the performance of algorithms … by a factor of 9,000. It also means having a strong educational environment to help solve the talent shortage facing the industry. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat with Michael J. Biercuk from Q-CTRL on how control… Podcast January 25, 2023 Podcast | Application-Specific Quantum Computing – with Anastasia Marchenkova Bleximo Squeezing every bit of performance out of a NISQ-era quantum processor is usually handled in the software stack. But what if you could actually design QPUs for specific types of use cases? Anastasia Marchenkova is working on this approach at Bleximo and the result has been a remarkable boost to speed.
