OsloMet QuantumHub day

andrelae on 19. September 2023

On Thursday 21st of September OsloMet will host a QuantumHub day. The doors will open at 16 and you are invited to check out the event at Pilestredet 35 (by Holberg plass), rooms: PI447, PI451 and PI460. During the event there will be the possibility to:

Try your own quantum computing programs
Experience quantum dynamics at close range
Play quantum moves with wave functions
Discuss with quantum researchers why the quantum universe is exciting and important
Receive QauntumHub merch! (limited supply)

The event starts with a short introduction seminar at 16.00, but feel free to join at any time. The event ends at 18.

Quantum interest at ZavaZone

solvese on 12. September 2023

At JavaZone last week, according to themselves the biggest European community-driven conference for modern developers, Andreas Ahlgren – among others – gave a thrilling presentation on quantum computing and its possibilities. Andreas, our hub’s “partner in quantum”, one of the international leaders of Sopra Steria’s quantum initiative (among other things). In his presentation he got to demonstrate his impressive skills when it comes to “thinking outside the box”, unhindered by limitations of imagination.

Here you can see his presentation entitled Quantummania – an unexpected journey.

You can read more about Andreas and his quantum interest at this Kode24 article:

Finally: An actual hub

solvese on 22. August 2023

This spring we had the pleasure of finally putting our quantum computers, if not on a pedestal, at least in a dedicated room. The room, PS340 in Pilestredet 35, also fits a few people, a nice screen and a small “quantum library”. Read more about it in this nice piece by Olav-Johan Øye:

In May 2023 our Hub was visited by Alexander Bendiksen who talked with Sølve Selstø about quantum physics, quantum computing – and the meaning of life. Listen to his post in his podcast Bendiksen Airways here (Norwegian):

QCNorway: The need for a Norwegian quantum strategy

solvese on 8. November 2022

November 7th and 8th, 2022, jointly with Simula, Sigma 2 and Sintef, OsloMet organized a workshop in order to highlight and emphasize the need to establish a Norwegian strategy when it comes to quantum computing.

Website: https://www.qcnorway.no/

The workshop featured contributions from several notable experts in the field of quantum computing and more than 80 in-person participants.

All presentations may be found on the website.

Here is the OsloMet Quantum Hub’s own contribution: The OsloMet Quantum Hub: Bringing the Quantum to the People.

Note also this interesting presentation from Shaukat Ali: Time for another Simula

and Umair Imam’s presentation on how Ruter has sucessfully implemented quantum machine learning: How Ruter uses Quantum computing in its machine learning algorithms.

Aleksandar Davidov, Sergiy Denysov and Sebastian T. Overskott at our Quantum Hub are all affiliated with this project.
