Quantum technologies are firmly on the world stage. From G7 statements to the designation of 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, countries such as Canada are investing in this field. Looking into the year ahead, Dr. Csenkey will share her thoughts on how quantum technologies can be developed and used responsibly and safely, and what this means for society, policy, and leadership.
