Note

The Songdo Tour and Quantum Diplomacy Game will be held simultaneously on September 1 (Tue.) (15:40–19:00).
Participants may register for only one of these two activities.

Registration

Developed by the CERN Open Quantum Institute, The Quantum Diplomacy Game is an immersive, in-person “serious game” that lets players explore how societies might respond to the geopolitical and ethical consequences of quantum computing.
As a participant, you will be presented with a future scenario where large-scale quantum computers exist but remain costly and largely inaccessible. You will then take on the role of a scientist, policymaker, industry leader, or other stakeholder in the present day. As you form alliances and make decisions, you’ll learn how careful governance today can lay the groundwork for a quantum future.

The game lasts 2-3 hours, overseen by a trained facilitator.

Venue Room 206, 2F, Songdo Convensia
