DESCRIPTION:Quantum will influence infrastructure\, energy use\, workforce 
 development\, and public trust. That makes it a civic question — not jus
 t a scientific one. This Middle Ground session convenes the people shaping
  quantum’s trajectory and the communities it will shape\, because we are
  all stakeholders in the outcome.\n\n​Quantum and the Common Good Tuesda
 y\, March 31 @ mHUB\n\n​Quantum is moving from research to infrastructur
 e.\n\n​This Middle Ground session convenes founders\, engineers\, manufa
 cturers\, investors\, policymakers\, community voices\, environmental lead
 ers\, and journalists for a practical conversation about what it will take
  for Chicago to build — and sustain — a real quantum economy.\n\n​Ho
 sted at mHUB\, with participation from leaders like Nick Farina Jr. (EeroQ
 ) and members of the local IEEE quantum community.\n\n​No hype. Just cla
 rity.\n\n​What must exist for quantum companies to build\, scale\, and s
 tay here?\nWhere are the gaps?\nAnd how do we ensure this growth benefits 
 the broader Chicago ecosystem?\n\n​All stakeholders in the room.\n\nDeta
 ils of the event at: https://themiddleground.netlify.app/#tickets\n\nIEEE
