	abstract = {In this talk I will try to convice you that the quantum computing community is in urgent need for your help, the evoluationary and optimization community.
I will start with a basic introduction of quantum computation, with special attention to what makes them stricktly more powerful than classical computers (with caveats).
Next, I will show how poorly classical optimization algorithms have been used in the field, and our attempt at solving this issue.
Then, I will present several parts of the quantum computing pipeline where evolutionary optimization can be of assistance.
I will finisht the talk with a cry for help, in an attempt to make everyone in the evolutionary computation and optmization community interested in the hard problems we are facing with quantum computers.},
