IBM and Google are racing to create a truly useful quantum computer. The technology is having its potential use in various domains such as banking & finance, healthcare, logistics, and many more. Looking at the numbers, the worldwide market for quantum computing is expected to reach around USD 2.5 billion by the year 2029. Cryptography will be a key application. Right now, a lot of encryption systems rely on the difficulty of breaking down large numbers into prime numbers. This is called factoring, and for classical computers, it’s slow, expensive and impractical. But quantum computers can do it easily. And that could put our data at risk. How far are we? What does this means to blockchain technology promise? How are companies preparing for quantum supremacy or how should they prepare?  We'll talk about a future of quantum supremacy with subject-matter experts.
