MN Azure User Group: Quantum Computing


Details
Please join us for the April Minnesota Azure User Group meeting.
This month's topic is: Quantum Computing, by Rick Weyenberg.
What is quantum computing? What are the benefits? What is the approach Microsoft is taking and how is it different from others? How do engineers prepare for the quantum future? Rick Weyenberg, Principal Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft and co-host of the Azure Flash News podcast will answer these questions, and perform some hands on demos with Q# and the Quantum emulator offerings on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
Speaker: Rick Weyenberg has over 25 years of professional development, design, and architecture experience in commercial & pre-sales software and over 10 years of experience developing solutions for the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. His current role is customer-facing and he leads deep technical architecture discussions with senior customer executives, enterprise architects, IT management and developers. Additionally, he is an author and co-host of the Azure Flash News podcast.
Rick currently lives in MN with his wife, two children and dog. In the winter you can find him on the ski hills on his snowboard and in the summer on the golf course or gun range.
Each month we bring in a speaker to present on various topics around Azure. The meetings are online, until we can return to the Microsoft office in Edina MN. The duration of the meeting is: 4:00PM-5:15PM with the speaker typically starting at 4:10 to 4:15PM.
