Identical and easy to find, atoms such as those in ytterbium can make flawless qubits. We only need to be able to trap and control them. Can using trapped ions as qubits therefore yield the most powerful quantum computers on the planet? How scalable is this approach on the road to quantum advantage? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about… Podcast Transcript September 21, 2022 Transcript | Becoming a Quantum Coder— with ColdQuanta Are you interested in becoming a quantum coder? The job market looks as large as the machines are cold. We’re all struggling in the quantum computing industry to find talent. Do you have what it takes? You may even be able to get started with less experience than you think. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about the path to this exciting career with Peter Noell from ColdQuanta.… Newsletter December 12, 2021 Assessment Questions for Audit Committees to Consider (Offered in Conjunction With Protiviti’s The Bulletin, “Setting the 2022 Audit Committee Agenda”) As they self-assesses their performance periodically, audit committees may find useful the illustrative questions we have made available in our Assessment Questions for Audit Committees to Consider. Committee members should periodically assess the committee’s composition, charter and agenda… Whitepaper April 29, 2022 A crisis upon a crisis: Human trafficking of Ukrainian refugees The Ukrainian refugee crisis More than 5 million refugees – greater than 10% of the country’s population – have fled from Ukraine in the two months since the Russian invasion, about 90% are women and children. The number of refugees already rank the Ukrainian refugee crisis among the top five refugee crises in recent times, and there is no indication that the migration is ending. The… Newsletter December 12, 2021 Setting the 2022 Audit Committee Agenda In prior years, there have been unique enterprise, process and technology risk issues and financial reporting issues for audit committees to consider in addition to the normal ongoing activities articulated within the committee’s charter. These exciting, unprecedented times continue to evolve the committee’s agenda. We discuss the agenda items for 2022 in this issue of The Bulletin and… Podcast November 1, 2022 Podcast | Trapping Ions for Powerful Quantum Computing with IonQ It’s hard to improve the purity of an atom.

The Majorana fermion has taken on almost mythical status, but Microsoft recently solved a critical technical hurdle to creating topological qubits with the particle. How close are we to quantum computers with this technology? What other future developments can we expect from Azure Quantum? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a… Newsletter May 1, 2025 Protecting data and minimizing threats with Microsoft’s Sarah Armstrong-Smith Podcast Transcript October 5, 2022 Transcript | From Qubits to Qumodes in Photonic Quantum Computing with QuiX Quantum In late 2020, physicists in China generated controversy by claiming quantum advantage with a photonic quantum computing system that’s technically not programmable. Other companies have been experimenting with photonic systems, including QuiX Quantum. How do these machines work? Should scientists redefine what quantum advantage means, focusing on practical, usable problems a machine is solving?… Newsletter October 17, 2023 Freedom to Fail: Risk Appetite for Innovation The manner that failure is embraced instead of feared in a business can improve the way the company evolves and responds to new market opportunities.
