UKRI Stories | Bringing the future of quantum computing closer - 101 Jobs That Change the World (Ep 15) @UKResearchandInnovation | Uploaded August 2021 | Updated October 2024, 53 minutes ago.
"We just want everyone to understand what the benefits of quantum computing are for us"
Meet Dr Celia Yeung, a Technology Associate at the Quantum Computing and Simulation Hub. She speaks to a wide range of people, from investors to industrialists, and helps them understand quantum computing & simulation and its abilities. As well as explaining how the tech can benefit society now, she builds advocacy for long-term investment in quantum computing so its future potential for sectors like medicine and finance can be realised. She also works to build a more inclusive and diverse quantum workforce.
"I'm hoping that in 50 years time that everyone would have bought into some level and that there'll be a healthy, knowledgeable, skilled, inclusive, diverse workforce that helps us maintain the lead that we have in this global quantum race."
