How can Europe turn its world-class strengths in quantum technology and artificial intelligence into practical applications, scalable companies and meaningful economic value? This two-hour session brings together leaders from the Dutch and Italian ecosystems to explore what Quantum + AI can already deliver, where credible opportunities are emerging and which collaborations are needed next.
