Belgian Photonics Online Meetup (bePOM)

bePOM is an annual gathering of the Belgian photonics community aimed at strengthening the Belgian photonics network, which associates research groups from all universities in Belgium working on fundamental and applied topics in photonics. It provides early-career and established researchers with the opportunity to (re-)discover and learn about ongoing research topics in Belgian cities nearby, without having to move from their home universities. The 6th bePOM edition will take place on September 19, 2025.

International Workshop on Quantum Technologies-2025 (IWQT-2025)

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.

Key themes to be explored at IWQT-2025 include:

  • Quantum Computation
  • Quantum Communication
  • Quantum Sensing and Metrology
  • Quantum Materials
  • Modern Spectroscopy
  • Gravitational Wave Astronomy

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.

100th Anniversary of Quantum Physics

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.

100 Anos da Mecânica Quântica

 A commemorative event of the 100th anniversary of quantum mechanics was organized at the Physics Institute of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil. A series of colloquia and mini-courses at the student-level, combined with a night event, Pint-of-Science-like, for the general public. No fees, but entrance is limited by the size of the corresponding places.

The 2025 IYQ Quantum Connect Webinar Series

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.

Swiss Quantum Week 2025

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.

Quantum Future Talent: Open Day & Careers Fair

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.
