A new report authored by Professor Michael Bremner and Associate Professor Simon Devitt from the University of Technology Sydney’s Centre for Quantum Software and Information, points to quantum software as critical technology in solving some of our biggest challenges in healthcare, security and climate.
The Quantum Algorithms and Applications study, commissioned by the Office of the NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer (OCSE), provides a roadmap for the development and application of this technology.
It suggests that Sydney could become a major hub for the quantum industry, which could contribute $4.6B to Australia’s economy by 2040. The report builds on recent data showing Sydney ranks as one of the world’s top five quantum computing hubs. The full report is available on the OCSE website.
