Quantum Industry Day will bring together scientists in academia, industry and representatives from the NSF and DoE for an interactive exchange on directions and opportunities in quantum computing. The day will include lightning talks and panel sessions, networking, and a closing lunch reception. The event will focus on discoveries, publications, and current challenges and their possible solutions. We anticipate an audience that is highly technical, and comprising research fellows, senior scientists, and Simons Institute program participants.                                 

This is an invitation-only event and registration will be required for all participants.
