Gilles Brassard Scientific Director, INTRIQ will give “Session Keynote” and speak on Special Panel: “AI and Quantum: Their Mutual Benefits” at IQT Canada 2023.
Professor of computer science at the Université de Montréal since 1979, Gilles Brassard laid the foundations of quantum cryptography at a time when nobody could have predicted that the quantum information revolution would usher in a multi-billion dollar industry. He is also among the inventors of quantum teleportation, which is one of the most fundamental pillars of the theory of quantum information. Fellow of the Royal Society of London and the International Association for Cryptologic Research, International Member of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States, and Officer of the Orders of Canada and Québec, his many accolades include the Wolf Prize in Physics, the Micius Quantum Prize, the BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Basic Sciences, the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics, and the C&C Prize of the NEC C&C Foundation. He has been granted honorary doctorates from ETH Zürich, the University of Ottawa, and Università della Svizzera italiana in Lugano.
