Il Quantum Day è una minaccia reale?

Sì, per questo lavoriamo insieme e cerchiamo intelligenze connettive per anticipare e mitigare i possibili impatti.
Presto sarà organizzato il primo QDay Italia evento di edutainmnet in lingua italiana per gli italiani per lo sviluppo del modello divulgativo-scientifico coerente con principi guida IYQ :

  • Aumentare la consapevolezza pubblica dell’importanza della scienza quantistica e delle sue applicazioni,
  • Rafforzare la cooperazione scientifica internazionale, multilaterale e interdisciplinare tra istituti di ricerca, ricercatori e innovatori nella scienza e nella tecnologia quantistica, e/o
  • Garantendo un focus sull’applicazione della scienza e della tecnologia quantistica per lo sviluppo sostenibile.

Quantum Wikipedia Edit-a-thon

When was the last time you fell down a rabbit hole on Wikipedia? How about one on quantum?

Join the University of Maryland, in collaboration with Wikimedia DC and the UMD Undergraduate Quantum Association, at its Quantum Wiki Edit-a-thon on September 30th, 2025. Supported by the National Science Foundation, the edit-a-thon will bring students together to edit Wikipedia articles to increase coverage of quantum science and scientists.

This in-person event is open to all, and no prior background is needed – just a desire to contribute! Refreshments will be provided.

Quantum Enabling Technologies Workshop (QETw 2025)

The Quantum Enabling Technologies Workshop (QETw) is a key meeting point for the European quantum ecosystem, designed to highlight the enabling technologies essential for the development of next-generation quantum computers, sensors, communications, and software solutions.

Scientific and Industrial Ambition

The 2025 edition aims to strengthen QETw’s role as a catalyst for innovation by creating a unique space for dialogue between large companies, academic laboratories, SMEs, and start-ups.
The focus is on three main levers:

Scientific and technological valorization: presentation of flagship projects and recent breakthroughs in integrated photonics, cryogenics, advanced electronics, metrology, instrumentation, and applied quantum software (chemistry, AI, simulation).

Ecosystem structuring: stronger integration of SMEs and start-ups into the dynamics of national and European consortia and calls for projects, with particular emphasis on the supply chain and industrialization.

Collective value creation: collaborative workshops (“Technological Alliance Labs”) aimed at generating concrete collaborations, defining micro-roadmaps, and preparing joint projects that address the technological challenges of the field.

Scientific Format

Morning plenary session: high-value presentations by key experts, showcasing flagship technological projects, followed by a roundtable bringing together industry leaders, academics, and public policymakers.

Afternoon thematic workshops: co-construction of collaboration pathways around strategic topics (integrated photonics, quantum sensors, cryogenics and packaging, quantum software and algorithms, industrialization, and funding). An expert leads each group and produces a tangible output (action sheets, mini-roadmaps, targeted industrial alliances).

Expected Impact

QETw 2025 aims to:

  • Accelerate networking and synergies across the value chain.
  • Foster the emergence of multidisciplinary consortia and collaborative projects addressing key technological bottlenecks.
  • Strengthen the European visibility of the French ecosystem and contribute to the international momentum fostered by the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ 2025).

By aligning with the spirit of the IYQ, QETw 2025 illustrates how enabling technologies form an indispensable foundation for the rise of quantum applications, and how their synergy accelerates the transition from fundamental research to industrial innovation.

Quantum Is Everywhere

A seminar to discuss the deep impact of quantum applications on our society and the creative inspiration that quantum paradoxes suggest in contemporary arts.

Quantum Physics Beyond the Himalayas

Nepal Physical Society Gandaki Chapter (NPS-G) has been organizing different programs to celebrate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology to create a quantum science awareness program in Mustang, a remote region in Nepal surrounded by the Himalayas. NPS-G has planned various physics-related programs, including seminars, workshops, talks, schools, and training sessions, regularly.

Nepal Physical Society Gandaki Chapter [NPS-G] is a wing organization of Nepal Physical Society, Kathmandu, Nepal, with its working station at Pokhara, one of the most beautiful cities. The Society at Pokhara was established in 2008.

VIII Congreso Nacional de Ingeniería Física y III International Applied Physics, Engineering, and Innovation Conference

This year, 2025, we celebrate 30 years of the physics engineering program in Colombia. Three decades dedicated to shaping curious, creative minds capable of transforming the world through applied science. Moreover, this year we also commemorate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology. In this context, we are pleased to welcome you to the 8th National Congress of Physics Engineering and the 3rd Applied Physics, Engineering, and Innovation Conference (APEIC), to be held in the city of Popayán, where the program was founded at the University of Cauca.

This is a space to share knowledge, connect ideas, and build solutions. Here, students, researchers, professors, and professionals from across the country will gather, united by a common passion: physics, engineering, and innovation. You will find keynote talks by experts in different fields of physics, specialized workshops, and networking opportunities that will foster collaboration and the exchange of knowledge.

IBM Research Africa Quantum Meetup: A Framework for Secure Financial Transactions with Relativistic Quantum Tokens

We’re excited to welcome Isa Tippens from the University of Western Cape as our featured speaker in this engaging seminar series. The event will be held in a hybrid format, with in-person attendance at Wits, Gatehouse, and online participation available.

Research into quantum money dates back to the 1980s, but its practical implementation has been delayed due to the absence of efficient quantum memory. Isa’s project bridges the gap by integrating quantum and classical techniques to demonstrate a proof-of-concept transaction system. Combining quantum communication and cryptography, the project combines quantum key distribution, hashing, and GPS-based time synchronization protocols to create a secure quantum banknote framework. This approach enables the anonymous generation, exchange, and verification of quantum banknotes while maintaining robust security against counterfeiting.

“BOOT CAMP” on Amaravati Quantum Hackathon 2025
