Clear and useful introduction to quantum computing for lay persons. It doesn’t really explain or provide any specific business use cases (or indeed, other than RSA decryption give any specific use cases at all), maybe cause there aren’t any. So, when it describes itself as “for business”, it really means for people who aren’t computer scientists - and right now, only stock investors and businessmen would have any interest. Nonetheless, very helpful as a broad introductory guide, and full of links to further reading.
