In this episode of the Future in Review podcast, host Berit Anderson talks to Michael Redding, CTO of Quantropi and former managing director of Accenture Ventures, about the potential threats posed by quantum computing and how Quantropi’s technology is working to protect against them.

They discuss the risks of quantum computers breaking current encryption methods, the three waves of adoption for Quantropi's technology, and the importance of standards and regulations in protecting against quantum threats. Quantum computing is a rapidly growing field with a lot of R&D being done to advance the technology.

Key takeaways:

1. Quantum computing has the potential to solve complex problems that are currently unsolvable or take an unfeasible amount of time to solve classically.
2. It is not yet mature, and there are still many technical challenges that need to be overcome before it can be widely adopted.
3. It will require new software and hardware, and there will be an increased focus on developing these in the coming years.
4. It will have a significant impact on various industries, including finance, healthcare, and cybersecurity.
5. It will require an educated and trained workforce, and there will be an increased focus on education and training in the coming years.
