The emerging technology of quantum computing has the potential to solve problems that we simply cannot solve with our traditional model of computing. Now is a critical time for the field; progress is being fueled more and more by industry than by academic research, and its near term areas of application are becoming increasingly apparent. At Creative Destruction Lab (CDL), we build bridges between science and industry by providing high-value, targeted business judgment to early-stage, science-based startups.
In this program, we support individual applicants, pre-incorporated teams and early-stage startups to build massively scalable businesses using quantum computing in both software and hardware applications. In this talk, we introduce how graduate students and researchers, with their specific domain knowledge, can add incredible value as founders to such quantum ventures to solve the real-world problem today.
