Disruption is going to occur in many sectors due to the power of Quantum Computing, Sensing, Security and related technologies. Proof of concepts, select applications and investment is now ramping up as research is leaving academia, ventures are being formed and VC with Corporate Venture Capital is growing significantly.

The Speaker Panel we have for the context in first 30 minutes

• Prem Tumkosit – MSD (Merck in USA) Global Health Innovation Fund (Perspective from a corporate investor)
• Ilana Wisby – CEO Oxford Quantum Circuits (Venture which has funding and scaling)
• Kai Bongs - Birmingham Uni Quantum Hub (perspective from research)
• Andrew Gaule - Aimava (Author of Purpose to Performnace - Innovative New Value Chains)

Breakout Discussion with Expert Facilitators who we look to allocate topics which could be tech, industry with importantly new business model and Innovative New Value Chain perspective. We are not aiming for large numbers of attendees but people who can engage in discussion and add mutual value to speakers, facilitators and other participants.

Facilitators and more confirming

• Chris Erven – CEO, KET Quantum Security
• Christopher Savoie - CEO Zapata Computing
• Richard Murray – CEO Orca Computing
• Daniel Franke - Merck KGaA, M-Ventures
• Andy Stanford-Clark – Chief Technology Officer IBM UK
• Bob Cockshott – Quantum KTN, InnovateUK
• Rupesh Srivastava – Quantum Computing and Simulation Hub
• Najwa Sidqi - Quantum KTN
• Denis Bidinost - Aimava

Aimava has driven developments in many prior technologies at the stages that Quantum is now at. We believe the sector now requires cross-industry collaboration to understand the mix of technology, start-ups, incumbent players and identify new business models and partnerships.

Connecting technology, startups and corporates with new business models, what we term “Innovative New Value Chains®” (INVCs) will be key to accelerating the development of solutions that bring great benefits to the world and business opportunities. These can include development of better medicines, optimised logistics, sensing for the unseen, enhanced data security and many more applications. When these solutions are truly impactful they will disrupt whole industries and give opportunities to current incumbents or new entrants. Aimava has delivered INVC programmes in Electric Vehicles, Internet of Things, AI with leading organisations such as Aviva, BP, National Grid, Nio, Nissan, Total, Williams etc., leading edge ventures and investors.

Next Steps Following this activity we select disruptive opportunities and INVCs to build on the opportunities identified & offer in-depth discussions & connections with relevant businesses.

Attendees: Representatives from leading corporates, ventures, investors, academics and government

Many leading organisations are already identifying “Innovative New Value Chains®” by connecting technology, start-ups and partners with investment and new business models This approach is currently used by a number of global organisations to identify opportunities across the value chain, be more strategic and aligned with their investments, manage and develop their innovation pipeline, improve efficiency and reduce the risk of investing in the wrong opportunities. This approach is based on the methodologies and book Purpose to Performance – Innovative New Value Chains by Andrew Gaule of Aimava.
