About

Federal agencies stand at the epicenter of a quantum revolution. The transformative capabilities of quantum computing offer incredible power to accelerate government missions. But its evolution also threatens to shatter existing cybersecurity frameworks, prompting an urgent need for quantum-resistant cryptography to protect national security and public services.​​

Join government leaders and industry experts to explore this duality: harnessing the power of quantum while also fortifying against its threats. Delve into discussions on the impact of quantum computing, strategies for modernizing technology infrastructure, and the pivotal role of public-private partnerships. Emerge Quantum serves as both an urgent call to prepare against quantum threats and a visionary platform to invest in a quantum-powered future.
