A Quantum Business Conference organized by Bpifrance will occur online on November 2, 2020. The conference will focus on understanding the nature and the potential of new quantum computing technologies breakthrough innovations and their related business opportunities. What is the state of the art of Quantum Computing technologies stacks? What are Quantum Computers good for? What are the recent QC algorithms advances? Is there enough space in the market to build a scalable business focused on practical applications in a research-led industry? Why are research collaborations so critical? The conference will also include a discussion of the French Quantum Plan. 

The Quantum Partnerships Forum, organized by Kisaco Research, will be held on November 10-12, 2020. It will focus on creating and growing key partnerships within the quantum computing ecosystem. The inaugural forum in 2020 will be a virtual event and center around the themes of commercialization and supply chain. Similar to an ‘exchange’ format, forum attendees are expected to fill out profiles in order to increase the effectiveness of networking. The structure and content of the event emphasizes networking and the formation and dynamics of partnerships over product pitches, updates, and industry timelines.

The First International Workshop on Quantum Computing Software will be held online in conjunction with the Supercomputing (SC20) conference on November 11, 2020. The workshop will explore the innovative software needed to make quantum computing practical and accessible. It will focus heavily on the tools and software for quantum computing with particular emphasis on realized implementations.

The Quantum Techniques in Machine Learning (QTML 2020) conference will be held in Boston, Massachusetts on November 9-12, 2020. The conference will be set up to allow for online talks and attendees and may possibly also allow for physical attendance depending upon conditions. This is an annual international conference focusing on the interdisciplinary field of quantum technology and machine learning. The goal of the conference is to gather leading academic researchers and industry players to interact through a series of scientific talks focused on the interplay between machine learning and quantum physics.

The 2020 Chicago Quantum Summit will be held on November 11-13, 2020. It will be hosted virtually by the University of Chicago and will capitalize on the momentum of efforts across the quantum community, including the recently announced launch of US national quantum research centers and key partnerships with academia, industry, and others. With a focus on building collaborations between national centers, companies, and innovators, experts will discuss the future of quantum information science and technology, developing a quantum workforce, and the applications of emerging QIS research.

Zurich Instruments will be holding a virtual seminar on November 17, 2020 to provide a technical overview and demo of their SHFQA Quantum Analyzer.  Click here to register for the event.

The Q-turn workshop will be held as an online event from November 23-27, 2020.  It is a unique international quantum information workshop series with a core mission is to foster an inclusive community and highlight outstanding research that may be under-appreciated in other high-impact venues due to systemic biases.

The Quantum Communications and Information Technology (QCIT’20) workshop will be held as part of the IEEE Globecom’20 conference in Taipei, Taiwan on December 7-11, 2020. The workshop will cover recent experimental results which confirm feasibility of real applications in quantum communications, computing, security, and sensing. On the scientific side, it will also address novel ideas in the fields of quantum communications and information processing, which contribute to the general know-how of quantum technologies.

The 20th Asian Quantum Information Science Conference (AQIS ’20) will be held as an online event from December 7-9, 2020 (Australian time). It will focus on quantum information processing, communication and cryptography, an interdisciplinary field bridging quantum physics, computer science, mathematics, and information technologies. AQIS’20 will be a natural successor of EQIS’01-EQIS’05 and AQIS’06-AQIS’19. AQIS’20 will consist of invited talks, and selected oral and poster presentations.

The fourth annual Q2B Conference presented by QCWare will be held as a virtual event on December 8-10. The conference will include business & technical education, thought leadership & announcements, and the latest on research and future direction.
