The quantum talent shortage: What can startups learn from the AI sector?

Quantum computing startups are starting to pick up a lot of attention from investors. But as they grow their teams, they all face a common challenge: there just isn't enough talent available. These startups are looking for engineers with the knowledge to build quantum hardware and formulate quantum algorithms. But these skills are mostly found in academia. On top of that, startups in quantum are competing with big-pocketed companies with their own quantum departments, such as IBM and Google.
