I want to thank the 20+ quantum companies who joined us at the White House for the first Summit on Quantum Industry and Society on Tuesday.

The Summit focused on three themes:

  1. Getting the science right by understanding the applications and timelines by which quantum information technology will benefit our society, and roadblocks we must overcome to get there;

  2. Enhancing American competiveness by accelerating technology development toward useful economic and mission applications while also protecting our national security; and

  3. Enabling our people by building the necessary talent pipeline and ensuring that this field creates new opportunities for all Americans.
