The most useful question from today’s session: where can quantum create a measurable advantage before it creates a marketing headline?
QUANTUM STAGESara KimThe supply-chain example made that distinction very real.
Dev MehraSharing my notes after the session.

A useful climate-tech signal from the Impact Arena: teams are treating energy, water and carbon as operating data—not a year-end reporting exercise.
CLIMATE SYSTEMSElena RuizThe procurement example made this actionable.
Daniel OkaforExactly—the signal belongs inside the operating model.
