After having given talks at the three past Q2B in Paris in 2023 on the Quantum Energy Initiative, 2024 on error correction and FTQC, and 2025 on FTQC roadmaps and on FTQC energetics, I participated for the first time to the Q2B in Santa Clara between December 9th and 11th, 2025 to deliver two talks (on use case/case studies analysis and on FTQC energetics, I’ll finish with that). The Q2B conferences who also happen in Tokyo are organized by QC Ware, a quantum computing software vendor based in the Silicon Valley.
That was for me the end of a three-week period full of events, which started with the France Singapore Symposium and the QUEST-IS conference on quantum engineering (my presentation there) and Teratec TQCI day on HPC-QPU integration, both in Paris.

Dans ce 75ième épisode de Quantum, le podcast de l’actualité quantique, toujours avec Fanny Bouton, nous faisons le tour habituel de l’actualité scientifique, technologique, événementielle et people du quantique en France et dans le monde.
Et comme d’habitude, voici le transcript, les liens utiles et illustrations de cette actualité.
Evénements
Séminaire SFGP
Je participais le 5 novembre à un séminaire organisé par la Société Française du Génie des Procédés : Génie des procédés & Machines quantiques. C’était un événement intéressant permettant de confronter les besoins d’une industrie tournée autour de la chimie industrielle et des capacités des technologies quantiques.

The online PDF version of the 8th edition of the book “Understanding Quantum Technologies” is available since September 29th.
As I do every year, I continue to update the book, first to publish it on arXiv which I did late October. On top of many small updates, I added a small section on the “Making of” of this version of the book which is the first I did in LaTeX.
I then continued to refine it – and refinement is an endless task – to publish it on Amazon KDP using self-publishing. The most tedious part was to create the cover with the right spine size. I automatized it entirely with LaTeX, to fit Amazon’s constraints.
