QUANTUM COMPUTING
Ilyas Khan, CEO and founder of Cambridge Quantum Computing, takes a close
look at the current state of play in quantum computing. One hundred organisations
have built, or are in the process of building a quantum computer, and huge sums of
money are going into government-funded research programmes. Ilyas will review
the rapid progress being made by a range of companies including Google, IBM and
Microsoft and ask whether it’s time to believe the hype.

by quantum physicist, Vlatko Vedral and selected New Scientist articles including:
- Quantum code: why building the ultimate computer is the easy bit
