Maninder Kaur, Program Manager, QURECA will speak on “Training for Work in the Quantum Technology Industry” at IQT Canada 2023.
Dr. Maninder Kaur, a program manager at QURECA, is at the forefront of driving the successful adoption of quantum education and workforce readiness programs. Her remarkable contributions include evaluating $36 Billion in Public Funding investment in Quantum Technologies, creating a quantum industry database, and leading the development of quantum training courses. Dr. Kaur’s insightful review paper, “Defining the quantum workforce landscape,” sheds light on global quantum education initiatives. She holds a PhD in Physics from the University of Delhi and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at ELI Beamlines. Leveraging her extensive research background in theoretical modeling and simulations of laser-plasma accelerators, she transitioned from academia to the quantum industry. She continues exploring various initiatives in the quantum ecosystem, forging new pathways in research and applications as well as quantum workforce readiness.
IQT Canada 2023 is the tenth global conference and exhibition in the highly successful Inside Quantum Technology series.
