As quantum computing moves from research demo to real-world infrastructure, engineering challenges, not just scientific breakthroughs, are taking center stage.
In this fireside chat, Qblox hosts MIT’s Prof. Will Oliver to explore the evolving challenges and breakthroughs in building scalable quantum hardware. From cryo to control, and from lab-grade setups to deployable systems, we’ll dig into what it really takes to build the backbone of the quantum future.
What you'll learn in this podcast:
➡️ The key engineering milestones and remaining roadblocks in scalable quantum systems
➡️ Where the biggest scaling bottlenecks are today: fabrication, cryo, or control
➡️ What differentiates research prototypes from engineering-grade quantum systems
➡️ How academia, startups, and national labs can collaborate more effectively
➡️ Advice for staying relevant in an industrializing quantum ecosystem
