Gradually, then Suddenly: Preparing for the Quantum Moment

Quantum computing is shifting from theoretical promise to viable strategy. Early pilots have shown breakthroughs in risk modelling, portfolio-optimisation, and payments security, raising urgent questions for financial institutions built on trust and cryptography.

But how do we shift from experiments to an enterprise-wide quantum strategy — before quantum's "AI moment"?

This session brings together technology leaders, quantum researchers, and financial innovators to explore how first-movers can reap the quantum advantage and gain a competitive edge: from identifying high-value use-cases, building talent pipelines, and eventually integrating quantum capabilities into core tech stacks - while doing so in a quantum-safe way.
