Quantum computing is not merely an incremental advancement in computing technology; it represents a fundamentally different paradigm from classical computing. Rooted in quantum mechanics, it introduces an entirely new information theory. As a result, translating existing models, solution designs, and approaches to quantum computing is a complex and non-trivial task. This comprehensive book demystifies complex quantum concepts through accessible explanations, practical case studies, and real-world examples from various industries including aerospace, agriculture, automotive, chemicals, energy, finance, government, healthcare, manufacturing, supply chain and telecommunications.

The book blends business perspective with scientific rigor. It is split into two parts. The first section explains the foundational technical concepts covering quantum mechanics principles that enable quantum technologies, key quantum algorithms, mathematical concepts, quantum computing technologies, post-quantum cryptography, types of problems quantum computers solve, and the technology outlook. The second section covers practical applicability providing industry use case examples, how to approach quantum computing problems, explains how to map use cases to quantum computing, the responsible use of quantum computing, and details a roadmap for businesses to prepare for quantum adoption. This structured approach equips readers with the knowledge and tools needed to integrate quantum computing into their strategic planning effectively.

Quantum Computing Strategy: Foundations and Applicability is an essential reference for technology enthusiasts, business leaders, policymakers, and educators seeking to understand the benefit quantum computing brings for enterprises. It is designed to be a self-contained learning resource.

Elena Yndurain is a high-tech executive and professor expert in operationalizing innovation. She holds a PhD in Telematics Engineering focused on AI, an Executive MBA, B.Sc. in CS and Math. She has worked internationally in consulting, technology, multilateral banking, and software start-ups.
