Somewhere in Virginia, about a year from now, there will be a room where the only sound will be a low, repetitive hum, sort of like an MRI machine. That sound will be the rhythmic pulse of gas moving through tubes; gas that's meant to keep a machine colder than outer space. Inside that machine is a different approach to computing: A system built to take on the problems our best supercomputers can't even touch.

On this episode of Access to Excellence, President Gregory Washington is joined by TreQ founder and CEO Mandy Birch and director of George Mason's Quantum Science and Engineering Center Patrick Vora to discuss establishing the Virginia Quantum Hub at George Mason: an inclusive quantum ecosystem built by public-private partnerships that will bring the first open-architecture quantum computing system to the National Capital Region.
