Hello and welcome to the Institute for
Quantum Computing at the University of
Waterloo. Take a look around, right now
you're standing in the lobby of an
institution that has led quantum
information research for more than 15
years. Here at IQC, state-of-the-art
laboratories house world-renowned
researchers who are focused on four core
areas: quantum computing, quantum
communication, quantum materials and
quantum sensors. Throughout these halls
and spiraling staircases
quantum information is being explored
through experiments in optics, nano
electronics, nuclear magnetic resonance,
and a lot more. Waterloo's unique
research capacity, commercialization
support, and exciting cluster of quantum
technology businesses, offering products
in quantum software communication and
security have led the community to be
known globally as "Quantum Valley".
