Quantum computing promises unprecedented scientific breakthroughs, from revolutionizing materials science to solving complex problems beyond classical computing’s reach. But it also poses an existential threat to modern encryption—potentially rendering today’s security systems obsolete overnight. What happens when all our secrets are suddenly vulnerable?

This panel brings together cybersecurity experts, quantum researchers, and policy leaders to explore the race between quantum decryption and post-quantum cryptography. As nation-states and private companies compete for quantum supremacy, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

From financial transactions to state secrets, everything protected by encryption today could be exposed in a post-quantum world. As the timeline accelerates, we must ask:

  • How close are we to practical quantum decryption, and who will get there first?

  • Can post-quantum cryptography be deployed in time to protect global security?

  • What geopolitical consequences will quantum breakthroughs bring, and how do we prepare?

By attending, you can begin to learn:

  • The Reality of Quantum Threats: How soon quantum computers could break existing encryption and what that means for businesses, governments, and individuals.

  • The Defense Against Quantum Computing: The ongoing race to develop and implement post-quantum cryptographic solutions before it’s too late.

  • The Global Stakes of Quantum Supremacy: How nations and industries are preparing for the strategic implications of quantum computing dominance.

Join this urgent discussion on the future of cybersecurity in the quantum era. Will we adapt in time—or will quantum breakthroughs outpace our defenses?
