Quantum computing is no longer just a futuristic research topic – it could evolve into a key building block of digital transformation. As part of the Nürnberg Digital Festival under the theme “Recode the Future,” this event explores why quantum computing is gaining relevance right now and what opportunities it creates for businesses, technology leaders, and innovation teams.

We will kick off with a keynote showing why classical systems reach their limits when tackling certain problems and why quantum computing is increasingly coming into focus as a new computer architecture. Building on this, the breakout sessions will provide concrete insights into key areas of action:

Breakout I: From quantum-safe strategies to practical transformation toward greater cryptographic future-readiness

Breakout II: A hands-on session with Qiskit that makes quantum computing tangible

Breakout III: Exploring where real value is already being created today and which use cases are especially relevant

The event will conclude with a keynote on the IBM Quantum Roadmap to 2030, connecting research with business application and showing how technological advances can translate into long-term competitive advantage.

Afterwards, we invite you to join us for informal networking over drinks and snacks.

This event is intended for everyone who wants to understand how quantum computing is evolving from vision to strategic reality.
