In Dataquest, Rahul discusses India’s quantum computing progress and Nagarro’s QLab initiative — building foundation capability, then client research and new quantum-based approaches.
Use cases span manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, coatings and finance (portfolio optimisation, CFD-style trading, Quantum Monte Carlo / QUBO-style methods).
He stresses talent, infrastructure and innovation culture as the gaps India still needs to close if quantum is to move from lab demos to industrial advantage.
Key points
- QLab as a capability incubator before client research.
- Finance and materials science as near-term application domains.
- Talent and infrastructure as the real bottlenecks.
