Not the hype, not the science fiction — the actual hardware race between superconducting qubits, trapped ions, and topological systems; the software stack from quantum algorithms to error correction; and the enterprise use cases where quantum might actually deliver value first, from drug discovery to portfolio optimization. Each episode, Lucas maps the technical landscape with specific numbers — qubit counts, coherence times, gate fidelities — while Luna presses on the business logic: who is buying, who is selling, and what the ROI timeline really looks like. They name the companies (IBM, Google, IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave), the investors (quantum-focused VC funds, corporate R&D arms), and the open questions (decoupling hype from benchmarked results, talent shortages, supply chain for dilution refrigerators). No crystal-ball gazing — just a forensic look at the emerging quantum economy through the lens of public financial filings, academic preprints, and industry roadmaps. If you work in tech strategy, venture capital, or deep-tech product management, this is the conversation that prepares you fo…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T08:17:20.403037+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quantum-computing-business-with-fexingo-hardware-software-and-enterprise-quantum-7872009"},"episode":{"title":"How Quantum Computing Is Redesigning Antibiotics","slug":"how-quantum-computing-is-redesigning-antibiotics","published_at":"2026-07-17T08:27:01+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quantum-computing-business-with-fexingo-hardware-software-and-enterprise-quantum-7872009/how-quantum-computing-is-redesigning-antibiotics","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quantum-computing-business-with-fexingo-hardware-software-and-enterprise-quantum-7872009","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/quantum-computing-business/episode-0116.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/quantum-computing-business/episode-0116.mp3","summary":"In this episode of Quantum Computing Business with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how quantum computers are being used to redesign antibiotics to fight superbugs. They focus on a specific case: Roche's collaboration with 1QBit, where quantum algorithms screened molecular configurations for a new class of antibiotics targeting gram-negative bacteria. The hosts discuss why classical computing struggles with the combinatorial chemistry of antibiotic design, how quantum annealing tackles the problem, and what early results suggest about the timeline for real-world impact. They also touch on the economics of antibiotic development and why quantum's advantage may come sooner here than in other drug discovery areas. A concrete look at one of the most promising near-term applications of quantum computing in life sciences. #QuantumComputing #Antibiotics #Superbugs #DrugDiscovery #Roche #1QBit #QuantumAnnealing #CombinatorialChemistry #GramNegativeBacteria #MolecularDesign #Pharma #LifeSciences #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TechnologyPodcast #QuantumBiology #AntimicrobialResistance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"In this episode of Quantum Computing Business with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore how quantum computers are being used to redesign antibiotics to fight s…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":584,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/quantum-computing-business-with-fexingo-hardware-software-and-enterprise-quantum-7872009/episodes/how-quantum-computing-is-redesigning-antibiotics/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/quantum-computing-business-with-fexingo-hardware-software-and-enterprise-quantum-7872009/how-quantum-computing-is-redesigning-antibiotics.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
