Quantum computing isn’t just the next big thing—it’s a paradigm shift that has the power to redefine industries like commercial real estate, accelerate innovation in medicine, and solve municipal problems in ways we never thought possible. In my article, I highlight the immense potential of quantum computing to reshape cities and businesses alike. Right now, is the time for innovators to take ownership of this technological revolution. How do we meet this challenge? The first step is reframing the opportunity. U.S. companies and government leaders must look at quantum computing, generative AI, and other technologies as more than just technological advancements; they are gateways to a more prosperous future where our nation can truly live up to its potential. By committing ourselves to investing in quantum computing, we can ensure that the next great technological leap occurs right here in the United States. Dive into my article on Forbes Business Council and explore what owning this revolution truly means.
