Event Overview

The quantum timeline is accelerating. In this executive briefing, 50 senior Federal Information Technology leaders will cut through the hype to address the immediate, practical reality of quantum technology. We'll explore how hybrid computing, quantum-inspired problem solving, and early quantum capabilities can help agencies address complex operational challenges. The conversation will focus on the near-term decisions Information Technology leaders can make: where to pilot, how to prepare for post-quantum cryptography, what skills teams need most, and what architecture choices will ensure agencies are quantum-ready.
