Rethinking Security and Trust for Quantum Technologies
We bring together researchers, policymakers, industry leaders, and international institutions to engage with how quantum technologies are beginning to affect security, infrastructure, and coordination across sectors.
We focus on the practical questions emerging around encryption, standards, and cross-border cooperation as quantum systems move closer to real-world use.
Key Themes
From Research to Real-World Use
Bridging quantum research with practical application across industry and government. Addressing gaps in readiness, skills, and infrastructure as expectations for real-world use increase.
Security, Encryption, and Critical Infrastructure
Anticipating how quantum technologies will reshape encryption, data protection, and critical system security. Preparing institutions for shifts that challenge existing security models as quantum capabilities advance.
Geopolitics, Competition, and Cooperation
Examining how national strategies, investment priorities, and global competition shape the quantum landscape. Navigating the balance between geopolitical rivalry and the need for coordination and shared standards.
Responsible and Ethical Adoption
Integrating considerations of equity, access, environmental impact, and long-term societal consequences into quantum development. Supporting adoption pathways aligned with ethical principles and ESG considerations.
