Illinois is staking its claim as a global leader in quantum technology with the launch of the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park (IQMP). In this episode, hosts Becky Carroll and Eileen Dordek sit down with Dr. Preeti Chalsani — Chief Quantum Officer at the Illinois Economic Development Corporation and Business Development Lead for the IQMP — to break down what quantum is, why it matters and how this first-of-its-kind campus will transform both science and the economy.

From drug discovery to climate solutions, Dr. Chalsani explains the real-world potential of quantum, the importance of building an ecosystem in Illinois, and what it means for jobs and communities on Chicago’s South Side.
