NQCC Tweezer Array Quantum Computing Workshop III

Overview

The NQCC's Tweezer Array Quantum Computing Workshop is intended as a UK forum for special interest in quantum computing with neutral atoms and molecules, covering both academic, commercial, and supply chain development, hosted by the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC). We aim to bring together members of both UK and international quantum computing communities to exchange knowledge, share experience and discuss how the UK will support future directions for the platform.

We are assembling a program of talks and discussions on both academic and commercial development of tweezer-array quantum computing. The NQCC has a broad interest in scientific and technical challenges involved in scalability, fault-tolerant operation, platform performance, and wider technologies that support this field.  The workshop will also feature presentations on the role of NQCC, and a variety of support already offered to the UK neutral atom quantum computing community, as well as outlining the various mechanisms and opportunities to collaborate with NQCC in the future, through studentships, placements, collaboration, and more!

The workshop will present an excellent opportunity to engage with the UK quantum computing community and with NQCC. We will send out a full agenda, shortly and are looking forward to engaging with you.
