"Constructing the world’s most incredible machines: Quantum Computers" - A Lecture by Winfried Hensinger of the University of Sussex

Making use of strange phenomena of quantum physics, such as "superposition" and "entanglement" (referred to by Einstein as "spooky"), it is possible to build computers that can solve important industry problems in a few hours, that would require millions of years on even the fastest supercomputer. Such problems include optimising financial transactions, creating new medicines, making aircraft engines more fuel efficient, simulate chemical reactions, breaking codes but really span across nearly any industry sector. The realisation of practical quantum computers will likely change the world we work and live in.
