The Quantum Algorithms and Applications study highlights how New South Wales' deep expertise in quantum algorithms and software positions it to develop the necessary hardware to address the significant challenges of our future.
The report delves into the scientific and ecosystem conditions essential for quantum technology to revolutionise industries. It includes use cases and highlights innovations ranging from developing more efficient battery technologies to creating safer, more sustainable materials and pioneering new methods for manufacturing life-saving pharmaceuticals.
For the first time, the report maps out the full capabilities of the NSW quantum sector, providing both government and private entities with a comprehensive view of the vast opportunities available.
The Quantum Algorithms and Applications Study was commissioned by the Office of the NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer and authored by Professor Michael Bremner and Associate Professor Simon Devitt from the University of Technology Sydney.

Quantum technologies present a massive opportunity, but global competition and a shortage of skilled talent threaten growth, according to a year-long review of Australia’s quantum industry by Sydney Quantum Academy.
The review maps the industry landscape, workforce needs, recruitment challenges, and training requirements, combining data-driven insights with perspectives from key organisations.

Next-generation quantum computing promises to unlock new capabilities and address complex challenges in simulation, machine learning, optimisation, and secure communication.
Like any technology, quantum will have both positive and negative impacts on society. It holds exciting potential but also carries risks of misuse. While some unintended consequences are difficult to predict, there is clear value in approaching its development with an anticipatory framework. That is why it is important to accelerate efforts to understand potential impacts and opportunities, and to establish an ethical framework for quantum technologies to ensure they are used for the benefit of society, according to a discussion paper from Sydney Quantum Academy and KPMG Australia.
