From Quantum Advantage to Enterprise Value

Quantum computing has moved beyond theoretical possibility. The next challenge is turning that progress into applications that create real enterprise value.

In this episode of the Built for Trust Podcast, Nick Lippis speaks with Sumit Kapur, CEO of Zapata Quantum, about the shift from proving quantum advantage to delivering quantum utility. They explore how hardware-agnostic software can help close the gap between quantum computing’s potential and the business problems enterprises need to solve.

Nick and Sumit discuss emerging applications across drug discovery, materials science, optimization, simulation and finance, including quantum-enabled research into potential treatments for a cancer-causing mutation. They also examine how CIOs can prepare for both sides of quantum: protecting their organizations from new security threats while identifying opportunities to create value.

As quantum hardware and algorithms continue to advance, one-off proofs of concept will not be enough. Organizations need to start building the knowledge, use-case portfolios and institutional capabilities that will allow them to move when quantum becomes commercially viable.
