Industry Nights Speaker Series

We are excited to kick off our speaker series with Mauritz Kop, the executive director of the Stanford Center for Responsible Quantum Technology at Stanford Law School.

Have you ever wondered when a company will make quantum computing become relevant in our everyday lives? Have you ever wondered what quantum computers can realistically solve in our future? Have you ever wondered what a career in quantum computing looks like in the industry? Maybe, you've even wondered about how to become an entrepreneur in the space of quantum computing.

If so, attend our Industry Nights Speaker Series! Every week, we will have a speaker from the quantum industry come give a talk on their company and their efforts to engineer the future and realize the impact of quantum computing in the world. In addition, if you are looking for internships, this is a great networking opportunity to meet experienced researchers in the quantum industry!
