​In celebration of the 2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, the Center for Advanced Mathematical Sciences organised the first Lebanon’s Quantum Computing Hackathon at the American University of Beirut in collaboration with the Open Quantum Institute (OQI) at CERN.

This hackathon brought together talented students (at the undergraduate and graduate level) from local Lebanese Universities to develop quantum-powered solutions that address pressing real-world challenges in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
