Symposium on Quantum Science and Technology
After a highly successful launch of QCom(P) and WQT, the two international quantum workshops at COMSNETS 2024 and 2025, respectively, and an international symposium celebrating the quantum century (SCQC) at AI-ML Systems’ 25 conference, we are now gearing up to create a bigger, better, and broader impact by organising an international 2-day symposium under the COMSNETS association.
Hence, going forward, we have expanded our organizing team to present this special event, which will be co-located with COMSNETS 2027 and will encompass all four major drivers of quantum technology as of today.
Given the developments happening in India through the National Quantum Mission (NQM), this symposium aims to also present the vibrant atmosphere of the Indian Quantum Ecosystem to our audience, including the recent launch of NQM-supported Hubs and Startups.
The goal of this symposium is to bring together quantum researchers, scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, developers, students, practitioners, educators, and programmers working in this field. In this context, the symposium also intends to include the topic of understanding what it takes to bring more of the technology from an academic setting to real-world applications based on the industry requirements and technology development roadmap.
