Introduction to IEEE Quantum Week

IEEE Quantum Week is a conference that brings together the world’s top talent in the field of quantum information engineering. As an institute focused on engineering, the IEEE launched this event in 2020 to address the growing trend of using quantum information technology in engineering and the shift away from pure science applications. 2024 marks the fifth IEEE Quantum Week and will feature a wide variety of contributions including research presentations, poster presentations, panel sessions, and birds-of-a-feather sessions (sessions where people who are interested in the same topic can gather for free discussion).
