About this audiobook
Nominated as "One of the best new Quantum Computing books" by BookAuthority
This book demystifies Quantum Computing by giving to you the keys to understanding this new technological breakthrough and assessing its potential impact on your company, its suppliers and its customers. Complementary to the eponymous conferences given by the author for a few years, it is written clear, direct, pragmatic and business-oriented.
"Franck Franchin, whom I knew well in my debut as a entrepreneur, passionate about this revolution, makes us discover this new world with pedagogy and realism, without yielding to the easy temptation of the utopian dream while drawing the vertiginous perspectives of these new technologies. "Charles Beigbeder, President and Founder of the Quantonation Investment Fund
