- Description:
-
Join the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce us for the next installment in Chicago at a Crossroads presented by Old National Bank, where they will explore one of the most transformative forces in technology — quantum innovation. On Tuesday, Dec. 12, Governor JB Pritzker and Kate Waimey Timmerman, CEO of the Chicago Quantum Exchange (CQE), will engage in a discussion moderated by Pranav Gokhale, VP of Quantum Software at Infleqtion. Together, they will delve into the profound impact of quantum technology on our economy, society, and the future of Illinois. Microsoft is an event sponsor. The dialogue about quantum opportunities is particularly timely today — in recent weeks, the Biden Administration has named the Chicago region a U.S. Tech Hub for quantum technologies, and Fermilab recently opened a new flagship quantum research facility. This comes on the heels of significant investments by Chicago’s academic institutions, national laboratories, and businesses — all creating foundational infrastructure that has positioned the Chicagoland region as a global leader in this leading-edge technology.
Registration is required to attend.
