• Global Awareness Movement: World Quantum Day is an international initiative celebrated on April 14th to promote public understanding and awareness of quantum science and technology, chosen in reference to Planck’s constant (4.14 × 10⁻¹⁵ eV·s).

• Over 100 Countries Participating: Events include public lectures, workshops, exhibitions, and online panels hosted by universities, national labs, and companies across 100+ countries, fostering interdisciplinary and international collaboration.

• Grassroots Meets Global: Although globally coordinated, World Quantum Day is decentralized and community-driven, inviting scientists, educators, artists, and quantum enthusiasts to create events tailored to local audiences

• Researchers utilized a quantum computer to analyze complex knot structures, a task traditionally challenging for classical computers.

• The study demonstrated that quantum algorithms could provide new insights into topological problems, potentially impacting fields like cryptography and molecular biology.

• This application showcases the unique capabilities of quantum computing in tackling problems involving intricate mathematical structures.

• Breakthrough with Quantinuum: JPMorgan Chase partnered with quantum hardware company Quantinuum to generate “certified randomness” — randomness proven through quantum mechanics, a major leap in secure computing.

• Nature-Published Results: The results were peer-reviewed and published in Nature, validating the experiment’s robustness and marking one of the first real-world, verifiable applications of quantum computing in finance.

• Applications Beyond Finance: Certified randomness is critical for encryption and cybersecurity, but JPMorgan is also eyeing quantum for fraud detection, portfolio optimization, and machine learning enhancements
