3rd Nordic Quantum Life Science Roundtable
Helsinki, November 14-15th
Nordic Quantum Life Science Roundtable 2023 is an annual by-invitation gathering designed for key players in the field, aiming to catalyse Quantum Life Science (QLS) through knowledge sharing and exploring new possibilities within the intersection of Quantum Technologies and Life Sciences. The event will bring together interdisciplinary groups of scientists, entrepreneurs, funders, venture capitalists, and government representatives from the Nordic region and elsewhere working and interfacing with QLS.
We gathered our Nordic Quantum Life Science community via holding our first roundtable in Sweden, 2021 and the series was continued in Denmark, 2022. The third will be held now in Finland November 14-15, 2023.
The core of Nordic Quantum Life Science Roundtable 2023 will consist of roundtable discussions featuring presentations, panel debates, and plenary discussions. These sessions will provide Nordic QLS overviews, delve into in-depth discussions on Quantum Computing in the area of life sciences and offer perspectives from funders and venture capitalists on this emerging field.
We anticipate two engaging days filled with enriching discussions, collaborative networking, and the opportunity to build QLS knowledge. By participating in Nordic Quantum Life Science Roundtable, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the Nordics remain at the forefront of this rapidly advancing field.
