Quantum information technology is expected to disrupt critical communication, computing, and sensing infrastructure. Importantly, each near-term application of quantum information is recognised globally as a challenge in both a scientific and technological sense. Just as important as technical advancements, the quantum industry also requires a trained, skilled workforce and a vast investment in quantum education.

Now, in the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, join quantum engineer Thomas A. Searles as he uncovers the origin stories of African-American quantum scientists and their contributions to the quantum revolution, but also how people can be involved in the quantum revolution of today. Keen to inspire the next generation of quantum scientists, Thomas will be sharing activities and experiments fit for all ages to create opportunities for collaboration while building a safer, quantum-smart future.
