Quantum Computing for Business (Exploring Opportunities Available Today)
Title: Quantum Computing for Business (Exploring Opportunities Available Today)
Date: June 27 2026 Saturday Noon - 14:00 EDT
Summary:
Big media reports that current quantum computers are not able to attack business problems at scale. In Ron's experience, this is only about 95% true. He has found that certain types of quantum computers, specifically quantum annealers, are very good at solving constraint based optimization problems at business scale.
This presentation will answer the question “What is quantum computing?” by comparing quantum computers to classical computers and describing the various types of quantum qubits. Ron 'll introduce what quantum computers can be used for and what they shouldn't be used for. Next, Ron will look at a number of quantum computing use cases that are currently available to businesses today.
Finally, Ron ’ll present conclusions with a brief discussion of future hardware. There will be time for Q & A.
Speaker: Ron has been fortunate to have worked in a broad range of technical disciplines during his career. Areas in which he developed expertise and innovative results include, digital hardware design, silicon functional architecture (chips), computer language compiler development, and medical software. Ron has recently immersed himself in quantum computing technologies and has obtained more than a dozen certificates across the quantum spectrum. These technologies include various hardware platforms, numerous quantum programming frameworks and quantum sensors. As a co-founder and CQTO of B2Quantum, Inc, Ron has served as a quantum computing Subject Matter Expert (SME) for a large pharma company. As a SME, he performed quantum computing use case analysis, strategic planning, budget guidance and risk analysis. Outside of the technical arena, Ron is a licensed pilot, certified open water SCUBA diver, bicyclist, wood worker and a once in a while artist.

Where to Find Fabric
It is harder to find fabric these days, but don’t worry! We got you! Here are some sources for fabrics:
* Big Box Stores: Michaels and Walmart both sell fabric. We recommend quilting cotton for this project, which is the most abundant type of fabric you can find.
* Thrift Stores: You can use any sort of woven fabric for this project as long as there is no stretch. Be creative! Use old sheets or curtains from the thrift store! Remember: You only need 1 ⅛ yard of fabric for this project, so if you get a sheet there will be a lot of fabric left.

AI in Application Security Panel Discussion
**AI in Application Security Panel Discussion**
(note - this will replace the June meeting)
Join the OWASP St. Louis Chapter on July 7th for an open panel discussion on how AI is reshaping application security. From AI-assisted code review and automated vulnerability discovery to the new attack surfaces introduced by LLMs and AI agents, this is a conversation that touches everyone in the industry—whether you're a developer, security practitioner, or just trying to keep up with the pace of change.
Our panelists will explore the practical and the provocative: Where does AI genuinely help defenders? Where does it create new risk? How are real teams adopting these tools, and what's hype versus reality?
This session is built around *your* participation. Come with your questions, your war stories, and your ideas. The best part of these discussions is what the room brings, so don't be shy—bring your curiosity and let's dig in together.
**What to Expect**
* Introductions and Updates on chapter events and engagement ideas
* Panel Discussion
(\* OWASP does not endorse or recommend commercial products or services, allowing our community to remain vendor neutral with the collective wisdom of the best minds in software security)

10:00 AM rollout
All wheels welcome
We’ll be skating through the Short North and surrounding areas at a steady, social pace. Routes will use a mix of streets and bike lanes, so comfort navigating the city is helpful, but you don’t need to be an expert.
If you’ve been meaning to come out, this is a great place to start.
Come solo or bring a friend!
Columbus Go Fully Remote — 14 Days
🚀 **Go Fully Remote in 14 Days — Remote Ready — The fastest route to working from anywhere.**
*A bootcamp built by people who have made the transition themselves*
For professionals ready to build an income that is not tied to a single postcode, this bootcamp was designed to get you there faster than going it alone. With daily structured sessions over two weeks, you build a replicable system for earning remotely from wherever you want to be.
**⚠️ Important:** Clicking rsvp does not complete your registration, so use the link below to register and secure your spot in the session — spaces are purposely limited so move fast, and only a completed sign-up confirms your attendance.

**14-day outcomes:**
- Practical frameworks for building income that follows you wherever you go
- A step-by-step blueprint for replacing office income with remote income
- The mindset and methods to sustain remote income long after the bootcamp ends
- The tools and workflows that keep remote professionals productive globally
Your office is optional — claim your seat and follow the plan that thousands have used before you, since small groups mean real results not just big presentations.
🗺️ *Choose your city. Keep your earnings.*

Men's Group meetup
**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.**
How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently?
Then we will go into a topic discussion.

**COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS**
\*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\*
1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group.
2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another.
3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up.
4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space.
5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable.
6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
