Helmut Katzgraber (55North): Why materials simulation beats optimization for near-term quantum

And in particular, which use cases are good use cases for quantum technologies and which ones likely are gonna struggle down the road.

Use quantum where quantum reigns supreme, you know, in the quantum world.

That’s where classical compute struggles and where quantum technologies hopefully will bring value down the road.

You have the necessary ecosystem for quantum technologies to thrive in labs, you know, with generous grants.

And the goal, the first close was 134 million euros, with the goal being to focus on all sorts of quantum technologies and adjacent technologies.
