A new institute in Geneva wants to make quantum computers accessible to everyone. The Gesda Foundation’s Open Quantum Institute (OQI) was inaugurated on Tuesday at the European Nuclear Research Center CERN in Geneva.
Quantum computing technology is still in its infancy and it is unclear what practical applications it will have in the future.
The Open Quantum Institute will now bring together researchers from around the world to help identify future applications of this emerging technology, the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator Foundation (Gesda) announced on Tuesday. It’s about using quantum computers for the greater good.
According to Gesda, the OQI will mainly look for applications of the technology that can bring the world closer to the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Quantum computer simulations and calculations can therefore help combat climate change or antibiotic resistance.
As a first step, a three-year pilot phase of the OQI has now been opened. According to the statement, more than 180 experts and 40 partner organizations from the public and private sectors and 20 countries participated in the inauguration of the institute. In addition to CERN, the major bank UBS is also involved in the institute designed by Gesda. (sda)
