We are an interdisciplinary team of five students from the University of Stuttgart, proud to have been selected to organize a Qiskit Fall Fest 2025 in collaboration with IBM Quantum.

Qiskit Fall Fests are student-led events held at universities around the world to strengthen local quantum computing communities, foster collaboration among students, researchers, and industry, and promote the exchange of knowledge on the latest developments in quantum computing and technology. Each year, IBM selects a limited number of student teams globally to host these events—and in 2025, our team at the University of Stuttgart is part of this exciting international lineup.

Our Qiskit Fall Fest will take place from November 3–5, 2025, on the University of Stuttgart campus, featuring:

1. Lectures and workshops on quantum technology, quantum computing, and related topics;
2. A one-day hackathon, followed by an awards ceremony;
3. A networking day bringing together students, researchers, and industry professionals;
4. A mini-fair, where companies and research institutions will present their work and offer insights into the world of quantum technology.

IBM Quantum supports the event through materials, merchandise, and invited speakers, ensuring participants gain both theoretical and practical insights into the quantum ecosystem.
