About IEEE Quantum Week

IEEE Quantum Week — the IEEE International Conference on Quantum Computing and Engineering (QCE) — is bridging the gap between the science of quantum computing and the development of an industry surrounding it. As such, this event brings a perspective to the quantum industry different from academic or business conferences. IEEE Quantum Week is a multidisciplinary quantum computing and engineering venue that gives attendees the unique opportunity to discuss challenges and opportunities with quantum researchers, scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, developers, students, practitioners, educators, programmers, and newcomers.

With the outstanding contributions and participation from the international quantum community, IEEE Quantum Week 2024 has formed an Exceptional Program with 80 Exhibitor, Sponsors and Supporters featuring technologies from quantum companies, start-ups and research labs. QCE24, the Fifth IEEE International Conference on Quantum Computing and Engineering, features a career fair, a student mentorship program, 9 world-class keynote speakers, 36 workforce-building tutorials, 35 community-building workshops, 222 stellar technical papers, 16 stimulating panels, 140 innovative posters, and 6 Birds-of-a-Feather sessions.

QCE24 will be held as an in-person event with virtual participation in Montréal, Québec, Canada at the Palais des Congrès. After four highly successful IEEE Quantum Week events, we are eager to develop an oustanding conference program for the fifth time with live exhibits, world-class keynote speakers, technical papers, community building workshops, workforce-building tutorials, stimulating panels, innovative posters, thought-provoking Birds of Feather (BoF) sessions, and highly engaging networking sessions. Attend in-person for the full conference experience! Virtual registration options are available for those who are unable to travel to Montréal, Québec, Canada.

With your contributions and support, together we are building a wonderful premier Meeting of Quantum Minds to help advance the fields of quantum computing and engineering. IEEE Quantum Week provides ample opportunities to network with your peers and explore partnerships with industry, government, and academia. Quantum Week 2024 aims to bring together quantum professionals, researchers, educators, entrepreneurs, champions,and enthusiasts to exchange and share their experiences, challenges, research results, innovations, applications, pathways, and enthusiasm on all aspects of quantum computing and engineering. IEEE Quantum Week aims to showcase quantum research, practice, applications, education, and training including quantum systems software, quantum technology engineering, hybrid quantum-classical computing architectures & algorithms, quantum machine learning (QML), symbiosis of quantum computing and generative AI, integrated HPC & quantum platforms, software engineering methods & tools, quantum error correction and mitigation, distributed quantum computing, adiabatic computing, quantum utility, quantum advantage, benchmarks, optimization techniques, quantum sensing, simulation of chemical, physical and biological systems, and quantum applications.
