IEEE Quantum Week 2026
Transforming quantum ideas into real-world impact
IEEE Quantum Week has rapidly grown into a premier international forum for quantum computing and engineering, attracting participants from across the global quantum ecosystem. In 2026, attendance will exceed 2,100 participants—more than 20% growth over the 1,750+ attendees who joined us the previous year.
The conference offers a multidisciplinary venue to present original research, share practical insights, engage with experts, and translate research and innovations into real-world impact.
IEEE Quantum Week 2026 offers an exceptional program featuring 10 world-class keynotes, 46 community-building workshops, 48 workforce-building tutorials, 372 stellar technical papers, 22 stimulating panels, 7 BoFs, 195 innovative posters, and 156 workshop papers. IEEE Quantum Week 2026 will also feature a vibrant Exhibition Program including the Exhibit Theatre, a Canadian Quantum Village, a Student Speed Mentorship session, and a Career Fair, providing contributors, organizations, and startups with a unique opportunity to showcase technologies, tools, platforms, sandboxes, end-to-end pipelines, and innovative solutions to the global quantum ecosystem. In addition, IEEE Quantum Week include the QSEEC26, the Quantum Science and Engineering Education Conference.
A core theme of IEEE Quantum Week 2026 focuses on translating research into real-world impact through the convergence of generative AI, distributed quantum systems, and quantum software engineering.
