Quantum Technologies Course – Overview for Managers and Leaders
| Language: | Englisch |
| Location: | München |
| Duration: | 1 day |
| Start: | 18.07.2024 |
| Cost: | 850 € |
Quantum technologies are a firmly established and rapidly growing field of scientific research with great application potential for industry. The current challenge for Germany and Europe is to transfer quantum systems knowledge and technological expertise from university laboratories and research institutes to industry. Specialists and managers from the high-tech industry play a key role and must recognize and implement the specific potential of quantum technologies for their companies.
Our one-day overview course, “Quantum Technologies – Overview Course for Managers and Executives,” therefore introduces managers in the industry to the technologies of quantum sensing, quantum communication, quantum simulation, and quantum computing to realistically assess the current and future potential and limitations of quantum technologies.
