In June 2019 IBM announced the expansion of its quantum computing efforts to Africa in a new collaboration with the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits University) to provide a gateway for academic collaboration across South Africa, and to the other 15 universities who are part of the African Research Universities Alliance (ARUA).

It's now a year later and we are seeing lots of momentum across South Africa which we now want to spread to the ARUA members.

This Meet-Up will talk about how ARUA professors and students can start on the path to quantum readiness with IBM Quantum.

Speakers include:

Emmanuel Adu-Danso (PhD), Network Manager, ARUA

Amira Abbas, Intern, IBM Quantum (Zurich, Switzerland) and PhD Student, University of KwaZulu-Natal

Ismail Akhalwaya, Quantum Researcher, IBM Research Africa

Conrad Haupt, Masters Student in High-Performance Computing, University of the Witwatersrand
