Quantum in Europe: high stakes for emerging tech

Quantum technologies promise to radically accelerate progress in medicine, climate modelling, materials science, energy systems and beyond. But what stage are these technologies at today? Get an exciting look into the future of innovation as experts discuss Europe's world-class quantum science and startup scene and what it will take for their breakthroughs to scale. From finding the right talent and patient investors to developing resilient supply chains and strong intellectual property strategies, getting quantum to market can be complex but its potential impact is unprecedented. Drawing on key highlights from a recent EPO-OECD study on quantum computing, communication and sensing, this episode explores how inventors, policymakers and investors are working together to drive the next quantum revolution. Host: Marguerite McCaughan, Communications Manager, EPO Guests:  Pere Arque Castells, Stream leader, EPO Observatory on Patents and Technology Guy Lalanne, Acting Head of Division - Productivity, Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Samira Nik, European Innovation Council Alexandra Paul, Global Public Policy Lead, Pasqal Pierre Jaeger, Quantum Strategic Partnership Europe & Quantum Leader France, IBM Quantum Ylan Tran, Investor, Quantonation  More information:  Visit the EPO’s quantum technologies platform: epo.org/quantum
