On May 7th, Kvantify is co-organizing an event on the fusion of quantum computing and chemistry and the potential to make impact and accelerate innovation in chemistry and technology.

When will quantum computing make the first impact? Chemistry is one of the fields showing significant progress. This event unravels why, what the opportunities are, and which steps are needed to make the impact. Chemistry simulations are at the heart of bio-technology and drug discovery – economic drivers and cornerstones for solutions to urgent global challenges.

Kvantify is co-organizing the event together with Atom Computing and Aarhus University to highlight and raise broader awareness of the potential that quantum computing holds for chemical simulations, including applications in drug development and biosolutions.
