Quantum Applications and Technology - 11:00 - 11:45

Quantum is moving from abstract promise to early, specific capabilities in sensing, communications, and select computational workflows. This session breaks down what “quantum” actually means across the major technology tracks, what is real today versus research-stage, and where enterprises can test value without betting the business. We will map concrete use cases by industry, explain what problem each use case solves, what the dependencies are, and how to evaluate vendors and pilots with clear success metrics. Attendees will leave with a practical way to separate signal from noise and a short list of use cases that are worth exploring now.
