On November 1-2, the University of Colorado Boulder will welcome current and prospective industry partners to campus to learn about Quantum Applied Science and Engineering (QASE), the university’s new, comprehensive exploration of the range of opportunities presented by quantum technology.
About Quantum Applied Science and Engineering (QASE)
When: Wednesday, Nov 1 – Thursday, Nov 2; 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Where: SEEC Room C120; 4001 Discovery Drive, Boulder, CO
Registration: Full admission ($500), Wednesday Reception Guest ($30), CU Faculty/Staff (complimentary)
Quantum technology is an emerging, disruptive, technological paradigm with enormous potential. There are substantial global opportunities in quantum science and technology, which has received early backing from the UK, China, Europe, Australia, Canada and Singapore, and considerable investment in quantum computing by Google, IBM, Microsoft, Intel and others.
Already situated within one of the most important research communities for quantum science and technology in the country, CU Boulder is uniquely positioned to be a major player in the commercialization of quantum technologies.
The university is investing in QASE as a national resource for:
QASE aims to develop infrastructure and facilities at CU Boulder that can be offered as a resource to quantum research and development activities across the nation, while establishing collaborative relationships with industry and promoting technology transfer.
Dana Anderson, founding director of QASE
QASE, led by physics professor and JILA Fellow Dana Anderson, draws faculty participants and students from a range of quantum-related science and engineering departments, while also partnering with researchers from JILA, NIST and other federal laboratories in Boulder’s dynamic quantum network.
About the Workshop
The Quantum Applied Science and Technology workshop will bring together representatives from government, industry and academia to engage, discuss and identify the needs of government and industry stakeholders in the nation's quantum agenda. Specifically, the meeting will introduce participants to current quantum technology, facilitate conversations about how quantum and classical technologies can work together to solve current industry challenges, and identify possible strategies to move quantum technology from the laboratory to the market.
