Corporate CEOs Should Minimally Have Quantum Analytics on Their IT Roadmaps

By IQT News posted 18 May 2020

(TechRepublic) Few corporate CEOs are comfortable trying to explain to their boards what quantum computing is and why it is important to invest in it.
For those engaging in quantum computing and analytics today, the relative newness of the technology presents its own share of glitches. This makes it important to have quantum computing experts on board. For this reason, most early adopter companies elect to go to the cloud for their quantum computing, partnering with a vendor that has the specialized expertise needed to run and maintain quantum analytics.
Christopher Savoie, CEO and co-founder of Zapata Quantum Computing Software Company, a quantum computing solutions provider backed by Honeywell estimated that broad adoption of quantum computing for analytics will occur within a three- to five-year timeframe, with early innovators in sectors like oil and gas, and chemistry, that already understand the value of the technology and are adopting sooner.
“Whether or not you adopt quantum analytics now, you should minimally have it on your IT roadmap,” Savoie said. “Quantum computing is a bit like the COVID-19 crisis. At first, there were only two deaths; then two weeks later, there were ten thousand. Quantum computing and analytics is a highly disruptive technology that can exponentially advance some companies over others.”
