MASSACHUSETTS, MA, UNITED STATES, June 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- At a pivotal moment for the future of American technology leadership, Dr. Ethan Klein, U.S. CTO and Associate Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, will take the stage at Quantum.Tech World 2026 for an exclusive fireside chat on June 25.

As the White House's most senior technology official, Dr. Klein sits at the centre of US strategy across quantum computing, artificial intelligence, biotechnology and advanced energy. His appearance comes as Washington increases its focus on quantum technologies as a critical pillar of economic competitiveness, national security and scientific leadership.

For attendees, it represents a rare opportunity to hear directly from one of the architects shaping America's technology agenda and the country's approach to winning the global quantum race.

Taking place just two weeks from now, Quantum.Tech World will bring together more than 1,000 leaders from government, national laboratories, academia, defence, finance, healthcare and enterprise technology for what is set to be one of the largest gatherings of the quantum ecosystem in North America.

Dr. Klein's fireside chat will explore the role quantum technology will play in America's future competitiveness, the challenges facing commercialisation and adoption, and the policies required to accelerate US leadership in one of the world's most strategically important technologies.

"Quantum has become a strategic national priority," said Laurence Coldicott, Senior Content Director at Quantum.Tech World. "Having the U.S. CTO join us at this moment reflects both the pace of progress across the industry and the importance of the conversations taking place between government, academia and industry leaders."
