About IEEE Quantum Week

IEEE Quantum Week — the IEEE International Conference on Quantum Computing and Engineering (QCE) — bridges the gap between the science of quantum computing and the development of the industry surrounding it. This event brings a perspective to the quantum industry that differs from strictly academic or business conferences. IEEE Quantum Week is a multidisciplinary venue that gives attendees the unique chance 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 2025 has formed an Exceptional Program — Printable Program with 80+ Exhibitors, Sponsors and Supporters featuring technologies from quantum companies, start-ups and research labs. QCE25, the Sixth IEEE International Conference on Quantum Computing and Engineering, features a career fair, a student speed mentorship program, 9 world-class keynote speakers, 37 workforce-building tutorials, 41 community-building workshops, 261 stellar technical papers, 68 workshop technical papers, 13 stimulating panels, 146 innovative posters, and 3 Birds-of-a-Feather sessions.

Attend in-person for the full IEEE Quantum Week experience!

QCE25 will be held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, as an in-person conference and expo at the Albuquerque Convention Center. Virtual registration options are available for those who are unable to travel to the conference.
