## Resource

In this episode of Quantum Computing Business with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how quantum computing is transforming supply chain resilience — a fresh angle the show hasn't covered. They drill into a specific case: the 2021 Suez Canal blockage and how a hybrid quantum-classical approach from Volkswagen and DHL simulated rerouting across 10,000 containers in minutes, versus hours on classical systems. Lucas explains the math behind vehicle routing problems and how quantum annealing handles discrete optimization at scale. Luna challenges with real-world friction: data quality and system integration. Together, they unpack why the business case is strongest in high-stakes, low-latency logistics — pharmaceuticals, perishables, and just-in-time manufacturing. The episode ends with a subtle tie to listener support, then closes on the next frontier: quantum risk models for multi-tier supplier networks. #QuantumComputing #SupplyChain #Logistics #Volkswagen #DHL #SuezCanal #QuantumAnnealing #D-Wave #VehicleRoutingProblem #DiscreteOptimization #HybridQuantum #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Operations #Resilience #Pharma Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
