Applied Quantum Computing for Today’s Military

An information-sharing event focused on The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and Quantum Computing Applied Quantum Computing for Today’s Military The Federal government has been focusing on the quantum industry and how this technology can be a disruptive force within the military. Congress included language in the FY21 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) asking the military to provide annual reports of problems they want to use quantum computing to help solve, and the ATARC Global Quantum Working Group is highlighting the art of the possible with today’s technology. During this one-hour webinar presentation we will be hearing a Keynote from Congressional Staff Member (fill in name) on the Congressional intent of quantum computing for the military, followed by a panel discussion on Applied Quantum Computing for Today’s Military based on the White Paper produced by ATARC’s Global Quantum Project Team, and closing with a Military Logistics Demo from our partner’s at D-Wave.
