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.

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.

Global Range Quantum Networking

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!

Quantum Thermodynamics 2025

Held on the equatorial plane of the Earth on the sunny island of Singapore, Quantum Thermodynamics (QTD) 2025 will cover the study of thermal processes at the quantum scale. This is the 2025 edition of the annual quantum thermodynamics conference: previous conferences have been held in Berlin (2013), Mallorca (2014), Porquerolles (2015), Erice (2016), Oxford (2017), Santa Barbara (2018), Espoo (2019), Barcelona (online, 2020), Geneva (online, 2021), Belfast (online, 2022), Vienna (2023), and Maryland (2024).

Workshop: Quantum Algorithms and Applications for Physics and Chemistry

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.

Demystifying Quantum Computing: Theory, Technology, and Real-World Applications

Demystifying Quantum Computing: Theory, Technology, and Real-World Applications is an AICTE Training and Learning (ATAL) Academy Sponsored Faculty Development Program (FDP) fully funded by the Government of India. Organized by Government Mahila Engineering College Ajmer (Rajasthan), this six-day offline FDP (10–15 November 2025) aims to introduce faculty, researchers, and professionals to the theoretical foundations and hands-on applications of quantum computing. The course features sessions on quantum programming, quantum machine learning, quantum error correction, and real-world use cases using platforms like IBM Quantum and Pennylane.

Eminent experts from IITs, NITs, premier R&D institutions, and industry will guide participants through lectures and practical labs. This government-supported initiative reflects India’s commitment to building capacity in emerging quantum technologies and invites cross-sector participation in shaping the future quantum ecosystem.
