DESCRIPTION:Join us for Western Europe’s first quantum computing hackath
 on!\n\nQuantum computers have the potential to solve certain problems dram
 atically faster than conventional computers\, with applications in areas s
 uch as machine learning\, finance\, drug discovery and cryptography. Try o
 ut your quantum programming skills at our hackathon\, where you'll have th
 e chance to run your quantum algorithms on both quantum simulators and a r
 eal 8-qubit quantum computer\, as provided by Rigetti (via the cloud). Exp
 erience helps but is not required - our experts will teach you the basics!
 \n\nWinners will be announced at 2pm\, followed by pizza!\n\nPlease sign u
