Quantum Computing Meets AI: IQM's Vision for Hybrid Systems | Juha Vartiainen, IQM Quantum Computers
Juha Vartiainen is Co-Founder and Chief of Global Affairs at IQM, Europe’s most well-funded quantum hardware startup. The Finnish company recently achieved unicorn status with a $320 million Series B round, and has delivered more quantum systems than anyone else globally. During SLUSH, Juha spoke with Nebius's Head of Editorial, Linnéa Ahlgren, about quantum-AI convergence (including implications for AGI), the transition from NISQ to fault-tolerant systems, applications in computational chemistry and finance, and why AI companies should start exploring quantum integration now.
