Here is a framework for nations to work with revolutions such as #AI and #Quantum. First you have your people learn, then dabble and become early/late adopters (hopefully not laggards!), then become effective technical users and finally value creators. It is only then that the economy benefits from your investment, and you create sustainable job growth.
While #India is a key market for #Quantum with millions thirsting to learn and actually do things with this technology, there are still large gaps between:
1. Where Quantum Computing is today Vs where it needs to be for mass adoption [Quantum Sensing on the other hand is ready for prime time and GPS compromising incidents are only increasing]
2. The specialist work being done Vs the ability to hire millions of generalists
3. What it costs to tap into the technology Vs perception of what it should cost as a commodity
4. The talent it takes to produce world class indigenous technology Vs the talent that actually exists on the ground
5...
Each of these gaps will close over time. In the lead-up and as a first step, India first needs to learn enough about this technology, ideally from the very best, and spread awareness. The starting point of this journey should ideally not be from dull videos or low quality social media content, but from hands-on practical learning that is delivered through high quality polished content. Such practical training effectively complements all the theoretical content you learn in universities.
Q-CTRL's Black Opal product is the world's leading interactive learning tool that gives you just enough fundamentals (think 101) required to program a quantum computer. With over 28,000 users worldwide and success across the UK (Tamil Nadu adopted it last year as part of the naanmudhalvan program).
And now, we have expanded our presence in India through a network of local resellers. We encourage Indian companies, governments and universities to work with us either directly or through our contacts.

We also look forward to aligning with AICTE standards and to make our content even more relevant to India.
