  • The United Nations has designated 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, recognizing that quantum science has reached the point where its promise is moving out of the experimental phase and into the realm of practical applications.

The article from CIO discusses the anticipated advancements in quantum science by the year 2025, highlighting its potential to revolutionize various industries. Quantum science, particularly quantum computing, promises to solve complex problems much faster than current classical computers by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics like superposition and entanglement. The article outlines several key areas where quantum technology could make significant impacts: in pharmaceuticals for drug discovery, in finance for optimizing portfolios, in cybersecurity for creating unbreakable encryption, and in logistics for solving optimization problems. It also mentions the ongoing challenges, such as the need for extremely low temperatures to maintain quantum states, error correction, and the development of practical quantum algorithms. Furthermore, the piece touches on the global race to achieve quantum supremacy, with major tech companies and nations investing heavily in research and development. The article concludes by suggesting that while 2025 might not see fully mature quantum technologies, it will mark a pivotal year where quantum science moves from theoretical to practical applications, setting the stage for future innovations.
