London Tech Week – “What is Quantum and Why it Matters Now”

On Monday, our partner Kirill Pyshkin, spoke on the main stage at this year’s London Tech Week.

Joining experts from NVIDIA, Dell, and UKRI for a wide-ranging discussion on the state of quantum computing and what comes next. From the UK’s £2 billion national commitment to the emerging role of hybrid quantum-classical architectures, the session covered a lot of ground.

A few things stood out:

→ Life sciences and finance are the sectors closest to real quantum advantage

→ Quantum won’t replace classical computing, it will work alongside it

→ Infrastructure readiness matters as much as hardware progress

We’ve put together a short summary of the session’s key themes and takeaways: LTW2026_Quantum_Session_Summary
