Global Industry Clusters

QAI Ventures connects and accelerates industry-specific groups around quantum and AI use cases. Through four global industry clusters, enterprises can explore, validate, and deploy quantum solutions — guided by QAI’s advisory framework and powered by QCentroid’s platform.

— Industry clusters

QAI operates four global industry clusters. Each cluster gives member organisations access to a peer network, advisory programmes, and a dedicated QCentroid sandbox environment pre-loaded with sector-specific use cases.

Phase 1 — Strategic Framing (Weeks 1–4)On-site workshop to define quantum value dimensions, reality-check assumptions, and generate a longlist of 10+ potential use cases aligned to strategy.
Phase 2 — Prioritisation & Mapping (Weeks 5–8)Virtual sessions to map shortlisted use cases to business units, validate feasibility using QCentroid’s platform, and produce a ranked priority list.
Phase 3 — Roadmap & Decision Enablement (Weeks 9–12)Executive alignment workshop to categorise use cases (Watch / Prepare / Pilot / Strategic Bet) and finalise the quantum business roadmap FY26–FY30.
What you receive
Prioritised use case portfolio (3–6 cases with empirical validation)
Quantum Business Roadmap FY26–FY30 with decision gates
6 months of QCentroid platform access & support
4 hrs/month of QCentroid expert advisory
Executive narrative for quantum adoption aligned to your board

PoC Delivery Programme

A time-boxed, fixed-budget programme to develop and validate a quantum or hybrid solver for a defined business problem. Delivered through a tri-party team: QAI for project orchestration, a solution provider for algorithm development, and QCentroid as the sandbox platform.

3–9 monthsFixed budgetPost-readiness
+
Phase 1 — Data Discovery & Problem Formulation (Weeks 1–4)Solution provider selection, governance setup, kickoff workshop, and mathematical formulation of the problem with complexity and feasibility analysis.
Phase 2 — PoC Execution (Weeks 5–20)Algorithm development and iterative testing on QCentroid sandbox, benchmarking against classical baselines, and validation against real business constraints.
Phase 3 — Results & Knowledge Transfer (Weeks 21–24)Final validation, PoC results report with go/no-go recommendation, and full knowledge transfer to the client team.
