Description

60% of industry leaders know quantum computers will eventually break today’s encryption. Only 2% have started doing anything about it. Meanwhile, adversaries are already harvesting encrypted data in transit — stockpiling it for decryption when quantum computers scale up. Your bank data, health records, and board communications all have a shelf life that extends well past Q-Day.

WHAT THIS PANEL COVERS

• How the quantum computing stack works across three layers: the why (problems), the what (algorithms), and the how (hardware)
• Why Google’s quantum error correction breakthrough in fall 2024 was a pivotal milestone for the entire industry
• How the “harvest now, decrypt later” threat makes quantum security an urgent problem today, not in 10 years
• Where quantum advantage will appear first — from drug discovery and supply chain optimization to financial portfolio analysis
• Why you don’t need a quantum computer to protect against a quantum computer, and what NIST’s new standards mean in practice

PANELISTS

• Mark Turrell — Founder, unDavos (Moderator)
• Sumit Kapur — CEO, Zapata Quantum
• Dr. Will Oliver — Professor, MIT
• Cierra Choucair — Director, The Quantum Insider & Founder, Universum Labs
• Garrison Buss — CTO & Co-Founder, QuSecure

unDavos is a community-driven summit running during WEF week in Davos, democratizing the conversation around global challenges.
