Quantum computing applications promises vast computational power, but finding practical real-world uses remains challenging. To accelerate quantum computing application development, Google has partnered with XPRIZE to launch a $5 million competition seeking quantum algorithms with tangible benefits for society
The Quantum computing applications Competition Details:
- $5M total prize purse: $3M grand prize, $1M for runners-up
- 3-year timeline to develop quantum computing algorithms
- Focus on practical applications aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals
- Target areas: climate change, healthcare, materials science, etc.
Who can Apply for Google XPRIZE Quantum Competition.
The competition is open to teams from around the world – including companies, academic institutions, and individual researchers. To participate, teams must submit technical documentation detailing their quantum computing approach and proposed real-world application by the deadline.
