Quantum computing is an emerging technology that has the potential to impact multiple industries relying on intensive computational tasks. At its core, it is an interdisciplinary field combining computing science, statistics, and physics with the peculiar phenomena of quantum mechanics. The same can also be said of quantum hardware itself…

Konstantinos Georgopoulos Quantum Applications Engineer at NQCC Konstantinos (Kostas) Georgopoulos is a Quantum Applications Engineer at the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in the UK. Kostas works on understanding problems that can be solved using quantum computing and developing solutions (quantum applications). Additionally, he translates technical quantum computing solutions to a high-level understanding of their impact, tracks and evaluates the current capabilities and state-of-the-art, and manages projects and programs that address various layers of the quantum computing stack. About the NQCC NQCC is a National Lab and a new research institution funded through UKRI, which is dedicated to accelerating the development of quantum computing by addressing the challenges of scalability. Working with partners across industry, government, and the research community, the NQCC is creating the necessary R&D capabilities through the coordination and delivery of a technical program, alongside the commissioning and operation of new facilities.
