Our global economy is increasingly bolstered by a mélange of virtual ecosystems and disruptive technologies, particularly: the Metaverse and Quantum Computing.

The Quantum AI Institute — the leading quantum computing conference producer — announced that the Metaverse Quantum Computing Summit has been scheduled for September 1, 2022 at 10:00 am ET. Thought-provoking discussions on the business of the Quantum Metaverse will be front and center at this one-day conference.

The total addressable market (TAM) of the Metaverse is now expected to exceed $8 trillion this decade. In the next 48 months, ¼ of the world’s population will spend at least one hour a day immersed in the Metaverse. Markedly, nearly 3⁄4 of global enterprises will adopt quantum computing technologies in the near-term. During the Summit, the leaders shaping our critical ecosystems will reveal their success strategies and unique insights for business leaders as well as investors seeking to deploy their own Metaverse and Quantum Computing strategies for sustainable value creation and near-term impact.
