UKZN’s Centre for Quantum Computing and Technology proudly co-hosts a public lecture with the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Pretoria, in collaboration with the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation, on the relevance of quantum technology for industries worldwide. One of the objectives of the Centre, which is part of the South African Quantum Technology Initiative, is to contribute to the formation of a quantum technology industry in Durban and South Africa through research and development. We anticipate with great curiosity the talk by Prof Donggyu Kim on key challenges to link frontier research to industry in quantum computing and other quantum technologies, which requires interdisciplinary solutions from physics, engineering and computer science.
