Just as in marriage, if you want to get on in life you need a good partner beside you. In the quantum sector, this entails having at least one Quantum Applications Developer in your harem!
I am very fortunate in that I am good Zoom friends with Martin Machin, Founder and managing Director of Quantum South, a leading specialist in Quantum Optimisation Algorithms using QAOA and VQE protocols.
You don't get to the final of the AirBus Quantum Challenge without knowing your stuff!
QUANTUM SOUTH REACH AIRBUS FINAL SELECTION
In 2020, Quantum South reached the Top Five Finalists at the prestigious AirBus Quantum Challenge which featured over 800 global application developers.
A jury composed of world-renowned quantum computing researchers and Airbus aerospace experts—has selected the five finalist teams of the Airbus Quantum Computing Challenge.

QUANTUM SOUTH POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
Opportunity: Freight Optimisation
The team proposes a Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) algorithm to determine the optimal configuration for maximising cargo plane loading, an adaptation of the well-known “Knapsack Problem.”
Opportunity: Portfolio Optimisation
Financial institutions have multiple uses for optimization calculations, including portfolio allocation and rebalancing, capital allocation, cash management in ATM networks, financial arbitrage, and yield-curve fitting. The problem is, certain kinds of optimization problems are hard, if not impossible, for traditional computers to tackle
