Goals

  • Enhance QED-C’s position as the industry thought leader
  • Amplify the collective knowledge of the quantum community
  • Strengthen the global member community by organizing events focused on high-value networking and collaboration
  • Deliver value through enhanced member engagement by fostering deeper connections between technical teams across member organizations and cultivating a volunteer pipeline
  • Secure strategic investment in quantum technologies

Projects

  • Quantum Computing for National Security Assessment: The Q4NS TAC will conduct an assessment that brings together quantum algorithm developers with Department of War (DOW) officials to identify and prioritize useful mission applications of quantum computing.
  • The Q4NS TAC will seek to collaborate with and be responsive to requests from the NATO Transatlantic Quantum Community (TQC) and AUKUS partnership.
  • The Q4NS TAC will prepare a slide deck / report that documents real-world quantum applications relevant to national security as a resource for QED-C members.
