Along with Anil Prabhakar, the panel will also include representatives from the Department of Science and Technology, State Bank of India, NPCI, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Data Security Council of India, and a specialist from the quantum technology industry.

Quantum threat alert? RBI sets up expert panel to secure financial system, unveils Q-SAFE plan

A new quantum-inspired algorithm is transforming materials research by enabling rapid analysis of highly complex structures. Scientists can now engineer quantum properties by tweaking designs, such as twisting graphene layers to form moiré patterns that can turn the material superconducting.

Quantum leap: New algorithm unlocks complex materials beyond supercomputers, solving them in seconds

Quantum computing draws attention as it can potentially solve problems classical computers struggle with, such as molecular simulations crucial for drug development. Proposed by Richard Feynman and advanced by researchers like John Preskill, it offers unique advantages.

Quantum computing myths vs reality: Understanding what technology can (and can’t) do

India is currently navigating a "Quantum Leap" in its strategic capabilities across multiple sectors. On April 14, Andhra Pradesh CM launched a quantum reference facility to build India's "first sovereign hardware ecosystem" in quantum technology. Let's check the development in other sectors.

India’s quantum push: How indigenous research to boost cybersecurity, defence & tech sovereignty

The systems are developed under the Amaravati Quantum Valley initiative, marking India's "first indigenously built" open-access quantum computers, designed, assembled, and tested within the country with a supply chain spanning multiple institutions.

Quantum teleportation sends information, not matter, using entanglement from one place to another. In 2024, scientists teleported a quantum state of light over 30 km of fibre-optic cable alongside live internet traffic. 

What is Quantum Teleportation? How scientists made a breakthrough for the first time

Quantum physics explains how matter and energy behave at the smallest level, including atoms, electrons, photons and subatomic particles. Its core ideas include superposition, where particles exist in multiple states at once and entanglement, where distant particles remain linked.
