An evening of expert discussion and networking for a curated group of technology and finance professionals in Zurich.
About the event
Quantum is no longer a research question. It is an infrastructure question.
The companies building the enabling layer: hardware, error correction, software, and commercial applications, are making critical decisions now about architecture, partnerships, and market positioning. The window to understand this transition before it becomes consensus is closing.
The Quantum Horizon brings together a curated group of technology leaders, industry practitioners, and finance professionals in Zürich for an evening of expert discussion, honest debate, and meaningful connection.
Hosted by QAI Ventures, a global venture and ecosystem platform focused on advanced computing infrastructure, this is not a pitch event. It is a forum for people who want to understand where quantum technology actually stands in 2026, what the real use cases look like, and what the next three to five years will bring.
What you'll hear
The technology: State of quantum hardware, software, and error correction in 2026. What works, what doesn't, where the genuine bottlenecks are, and which timelines are credible.
The market: Commercial adoption curves, enterprise use cases across cryptography, logistics, drug discovery, and financial modeling. Ecosystem formation and the geopolitical context shaping deployment.
The ecosystem: How QAI Ventures operates across Europe, North America, and Asia; the companies we work with; the infrastructure being built right now; and what the global quantum landscape looks like from the inside.
