The upcoming IQT Vancouver/Pacific Rim conference will feature Dr. Ilijc Albanese, a Senior Engineer at TELUS, who brings a comprehensive blend of electronics engineering and networking systems expertise to the forefront of quantum technology.

With an educational foundation from the Third University of Rome and a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Victoria, his postdoctoral work concentrated on advancing data-center networking technologies and traffic modeling.

Since joining TELUS in 2016, Dr. Albanese has played a pivotal role in evaluating and integrating cutting-edge technologies within the company. His responsibilities include the rigorous testing and implementation of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) systems and the development of hybrid, quantum-safe encryption methods. These efforts are crucial as TELUS navigates the complexities of modern telecommunications in the era of quantum computing.

At the upcoming IQT Vancouver conference, Dr. Albanese will discuss his innovative work on quantum-safe encryption and its implications for the future of network security, using his role at TELUS as an example. His expertise in Network Traffic Modeling and Engineering, combined with his ongoing research in Quantum Computing and Machine Learning, positions him uniquely to address the challenges and opportunities that quantum technologies present to the telecommunications industry.

IQT Vancouver · Pacific Rim 2024: Quantum Computing, Communications, and Security—Pathways to Real-World Solutions.

With Vancouver as North America’s gateway to the Pacific Rim, IQT and the Quantum Algorithms Institute are bringing together partners across North America and Asia to showcase the state of quantum computing, communications, and security. This international conference moves beyond the quantum hype to profile quantum computing, communications technologies, and quantum expertise in real-world settings. Sessions will highlight practical applications of quantum algorithms and networking in pharmaceuticals, transportation, finance, and more industries. Attendees will include industry and government executives, end-users, and investors who will learn about the latest developments in these technologies, pathways for companies to get ready for quantum solutions, and ethics and policy considerations in this fast-growing industry.
