Quantum Computing represents the future of computing, promising an exponential increase in computational power and speed. As a fundamentally different way of computation, quantum computing could potentially transform businesses and societies.

Archer recently joined the IBM Q Network, which is a community of Fortune 500 companies, academic institutions, start-ups and national research labs working with IBM to advance quantum computing.

The agreement with IBM supports Archer’s plans to use IBM's open-source framework, Qiskit, as the software stack for the Archer’s future 12CQ qubit processor chip technology.

The Webinar will cover the future applications and potential impact of quantum computing, highlighting why the ground-breaking technology has captured the interest of leading minds, investors, organisations and governments alike.

It will also cover the basics of quantum computing technology and provide a contextualised timeline toward reaching ‘quantum advantage’: the stage of development where quantum computing shows demonstrable and significant advantage over classical computers and algorithms.

Viewers will have the opportunity to participate in Q&A, and this Webinar is open to the general public.

Quantum Computing Market

Australia forms a significant part of the growing quantum computing economy. Archer is one of few companies globally that provides investors an on-market opportunity to invest in quantum computing . The highest-value in the quantum computing economy is derived from the technology’s development in the US, EU, and Australia .

Biographies of the Speakers:

Dr Martin Fuechsle, Quantum Technology Manager, Archer Materials Limited

Dr Martin Fuechsle is the Manager of Quantum Technology at Archer and an Honorary Associate of the University of Sydney. He has 10 years’ experience in building quantum computing devices and technology. During his post-doctoral research at the UNSW Centre for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology he developed the single-atom transistor. He received his PhD in Experimental Physics at the University of New South Wales in 2011, working on the fabrication of donor-based quantum logic devices in silicon. He was awarded the AIP Bragg Gold medal for the most outstanding Physics PhD in Australia for his thesis. In his current role, Martin’s work focuses on developing a room-temperature compatible quantum processor as part of Archer’s 12CQ Project.

Dr Adam Makarucha, AI Practitioner and IBM Q Ambassador, IBM

Dr Adam Makarucha is a Data Scientist and IBM Q Ambassador within IBM Systems where he is developing deep learning use cases and demonstrations for clients on IBM's Deep Learning Platform. He completed his post-doctorate at IBM Research Australia in 2018, where he worked on deep learning applications for the financial services industry. Adam completed his PhD in Applied Physics at RMIT University in 2015 and has more than 8 years’ experience in using and setting up High Performance Computing environments. His current focus is on the intersection of deep learning and quantum information science, in particular how these two technologies can potentially be used together on the currently accessible quantum computers.
