Italian daily newspaper La Stampa recently published an interview with Prof. Simone Montangero.  In the article, he discusses the transformative potential of quantum computers, from new materials and medicines to breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, logistics, and cryptography. Prof. Montangero highlights how the University of Padova, supported by the national and European investments, is positioning itself at the forefront of this technological revolution. The full article (in Italian) is available here (La Stampa Interview.pdf).  

Join Simone Montangero for an inside  at the PASQuanS2 project’s ambitious goal: building a 10,000-qubit quantum simulator. Here the link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kn8tNgXNnM8
