This workshop will serve as a dynamic forum for the exchange of knowledge, the encouragement of interdisciplinary collaboration, and the advancement of cutting-edge verticals within quantum technologies, including quantum computation, quantum communication, quantum sensing and metrology, quantum materials, modern spectroscopy, and quantum-enhanced interferometry for gravitational and precision measurements.
The workshop will feature keynote addresses and tutorials by world-renowned quantum physicists, along with technical sessions showcasing the latest advancements and experimental breakthroughs. Special sessions will be dedicated to oral and poster competitions, providing a platform for emerging researchers to present their work and gain valuable feedback.
Opportunities for interdisciplinary networking and collaborative engagement will be central to IWQT-2025, supporting the formation of new partnerships and the nurturing of next-generation quantum technologies.
By bridging expertise across academia, industry, and policy, IWQT-2025 aims to accelerate the journey from quantum principles to real-world applications—inspiring the innovations that will define the future.
2025 also marks the 100 years of atonal music. Dr. Wu Xiaodong, Founder of Executive Medical Physics Associates, a dedicated publisher and a sought-after lecturer in medical physics and cancer research worldwide, also a lifelong advocate for classical music, has discovered the connection between quantum physics and atonal music. To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the two inventions, he worked closely with a young American composer and created a brand new choral symphony, Quantum Odyssey. It consists of 7 acts, and we will perform Act II: The Unveiling of Quantum Laws as the world premiere performance.
This Choral Symphony will be performed by the prestigious tenor and soprano, together with Hong Kong’s famous conductor and its orchestra and choir. Visual presentation created by students of the School of Creative Media of City University will be incorporated throughout the symphony. We aim to promote public participation in celebration of this 100-year event, to encourage science popularization and the understanding of science through music and the arts.
The American Physical Society presents the Quantum Connect Webinar Series in partnership with the Johns Hopkins Science Diplomacy Hub.
Quantum Technology in National Security examines the role of quantum technologies in national defense, including quantum radar, secure communications, and advanced sensing.
To mark the 100th anniversary of quantum science and technology, UNESCO has declared 2025 the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. As part of this global celebration, members of Swiss academic institutions, the Swiss quantum industry, and science diplomacy and policymaking have come together to launch the Swiss Quantum Week.
Driven by a mission to connect the diverse stakeholders and users of quantum science and technology—from ecosystem builders and policymakers to researchers, students, and entrepreneurs—Swiss Quantum Week builds on the strengths of established, well-attended events such as QIDiS and the GESDA Summit to create a cohesive platform that includes:
• Swissnex Quantum Summit
• Quantum Industry Day in Switzerland
• The annual GESDA Summit
• Open Quantum Institute in-person gathering
• QAI Quantum Hackathon
• A Quantum Outreach Day for families and the general public
Each event is designed for a specific audience, while encouraging cross-sector dialogue and international collaboration. Swiss Quantum Week aims to broaden perspectives, foster meaningful connections, and strengthen the Swiss and global quantum landscape.
The Sydney Quantum Academy is hosting Quantum Future Talent: Open Day & Careers Fair to provide information and guidance on study and career pathways in quantum science and technology. The event is divided into two sessions: a morning session for high school and undergraduate students, parents, and career advisors, introducing quantum science, study options, and scholarship opportunities; and an afternoon session for final-year undergraduates, postgraduates, PhD candidates, and early-career researchers, offering opportunities to connect with universities and employers and learn about internships, scholarships, and career options in the quantum sector.
Discover where quantum can take you at Quantum Future Talent: Open Day + Careers Fair – a free event where you can explore career and study pathways in one of Australia’s fastest-growing tech sectors.
In his talk, Dr Sidhu will present recent advances across the quantum networking stack—from hardware and protocols enabling global quantum communications to the role of entanglement distribution and quantum memories. He will also share perspectives on near-term open questions and challenges in the field.
Dr Sidhu is a leading researcher in satellite-based quantum communications and one-shot quantum information theory, working at the forefront of UK’s Quantum Technologies Programme.
Join us for an exciting discussion on the future of quantum networking!
The workshop comprises three tracks, plus a plenary session, including a hands-on introduction to quantum computing and Qiskit, a session on quantum education, and a deep dive into utilizing quantum computation for exploring problems in high-energy physics and chemistry.
This workshop is co-organized by Fermilab’s SQMS Center and IBM, with support from the University of Illinois, Chicago, and the Chicago Quantum Exchange. The event will be hosted at the University of Illinois, Chicago.
Track 1: The introduction to quantum computing and Qiskit track will cover the basics of quantum computing and the Qiskit library, a popular Python library for programming on actual quantum processing units. For those without a sufficient linear algebra background, an optional linear algebra session will be provided.
Track 2: The Quantum Education Track will focus on strategies and tools for teaching quantum computing within physics, computer science, mathematics, and other STEM disciplines. This track is for educators only.
Track 3: The utility-scale quantum computing track is intended for principal investigators, graduate students, and postdocs exploring quantum algorithms and applications research directions using 100+ qubit quantum computers.
Celebrating the UNESCO-declared International Year of Quantum Science and Technology in 2025, the Department of Physics at Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) proudly presents the 23rd annual Monday Physics Seminar, the longest-running weekly seminar series in Indonesia, featuring the special theme “100 Years of Quantum: Tracing the Historical Footsteps and Embracing Future Quantum Technology Breakthroughs.” This event, held on June 16, 2025, at the ITS Physics Department, brings together leading Indonesian experts in quantum science to explore the evolution, achievements, and future directions of quantum research, with a focus on entanglement, quantum teleportation, quantum heat engines, quantum optics, and solid-state quantum systems, and many more.
