  • Dr. Muhammad Khan, CEO of SuperQ Quantum: “The way it does it is by combining classical computing with quantum computing, and doing all the complexity stuff under the hood.”
  • Dr. Muhammad Khan, CEO of SuperQ Quantum: “Classical computing would take one route, and if it fails, it comes back and takes another route. Whereas quantum computing takes all the possible routes at the same time. And as a result, it is able to figure out the maze a lot faster.”
  • Renae Barlow, Vice-President of Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Economic Development Lethbridge: “Having businesses understand why it is important for them to integrate this technology and to be on the leading edge and to really create that competitive advantage is what we wanted for our southern Alberta businesses.
