About the Session
Quantum computing is transitioning from a theoretical frontier to a practical computational paradigm. As quantum hardware advances, the focus is shifting toward error correction, system scalability, and the ultimate integration of quantum processors with classical High-Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructures.
Join the Google Cloud Advanced Computing Community for an exclusive webinar featuring Elizabeth Rossi of Google Quantum AI. Elizabeth will provide a comprehensive overview of Google's quantum computing efforts and roadmap, highlighting recent technical breakthroughs and the strategic vision guiding the ecosystem over the next decade.
What We Will Cover:
The State of the Hardware: An update on Google’s latest quantum processors, including milestones in quantum error correction and logical qubit development.
The Hybrid Architecture: How Google is approaching the integration of quantum accelerators with classical cloud infrastructure and AI Hypercomputers.
Practical Algorithmic Frontiers: A look at the target applications—from quantum chemistry to materials science—poised to benefit first from early quantum advantage.
The Outlook for 2026 and Beyond: What developers, researchers, and technology leaders should do today to prepare their software stacks and workforces for the quantum era.
Whether you are a researcher looking to understand upcoming capabilities or an enterprise architect planning a long-term advanced computing strategy, this session will provide a definitive look at the future of quantum innovation.
