We are super excited to welcome Honeywell as the lead sponsor of the OneQuantum Africa | First African Quantum Summit and Career Fair | May 12&13. They join early supporting sponsors Unitary Fund to help us make quantum tech a reality in Africa today. Moreover, international speakers like Bob Sutor have also confirmed speaking at the summit.
Introducing advisory board members of OneQuantum Africa
As we strengthen our structure as a not-for-profit organization, we are happy to announce the members of the Advisory Board of OneQuantum Africa. They are Lesedi Modise (CLICK HERE FOR PROFILE) and Professor Francesco Petruccione (CLICK HERE FOR PROFILE), both well-established and experienced professionals who have solid interests in quantum research, innovation, and Africa.
OneQuantum Africa | First African Quantum Summit and Career Fair | May 12&13 is a well-regarded conference where you’ll learn about Quantum Technologies and why this range of superior information sensing, processing, and communications devices will become key tools in many industries, just like yours.
No matter your gender or professional background, you’ll distinctly benefit from the head start you’ll earn by attending. It’s always a good move to take advantage of timing, and in this case, the timing couldn’t be better as this game-changing technology is now emerging from the lab and steadily becoming a part of our lives.
And if you’re worried about jumping into a new discipline, then fear not as you are never alone since there’s an accessible and vibrant community available to help when you need advice. The conference includes an innovative and easy-to-use mechanism for making those connections happen.
By participating in the OneQuantum Africa | First African Quantum Summit and Career Fair, you’ll definitely benefit through:
Learning Sessions
We give education a priority at our Summit. There is a 30-minute, easy-to-understand session covering quantum computing, sensing, & metrology, communications, and security on each of the two days. The sessions are aimed at those with interest and curiosity but minimal background or experience in quantum tech.
Keynotes and presentations by experts
Top scientists and business leaders in quantum will help you appreciate the quantum tech ecosystem and how the various technologies (sensing, computing, and communications) are progressing towards commercial viability.
Career Fair
For many of you, primarily, our career partners are eager to hire, so we will share your CVs with them. If you’re seeking to expand your career, transition into quantum, or are just getting started, please send your CV to brooke@onequantum.org, and you’ll receive guidance leading to meetings with prospective employers.
Networking
By attending, you’ll have the opportunity to engage in speed networking, an entertaining and effortless way to meet attendees and build relationships that may help with your next career steps. Whilst our summit is focused on Africa, we will have people from around the globe joining us with whom you can collaborate, learn and exchange.
I look forward to meeting you at the Summit!
