Other Quantum Conferences

We must mention that the list of quantum computing conferences we have collated only highlights those conferences that are targeted towards industry rather than events that are focused more so on the academic and research side of quantum technology. Just so we haven’t left them out, we will list some of the more technical quantum conferences below.

  • The Optical Fiber Conference (OFC), March 5–9, 2023 in San Diego, California.
  • The American Physical Society’s March meeting, is an in-person event on March 5–10, 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
  • Quantum Computing Theory in Practice (QCTIP) conference, from April 17–19, 2023 at Jesus College in Cambridge, England.
  • The 20th International Conference on Quantum Physics and Logic (QPL 2023), from 17–21 July 2023 at Institut Henri Poincaré in Paris, France.

Conclusion

2023 is sure to be an exciting year for quantum tech. As the number of quantum computing conferences grows — both with a commercial or technical/academic bent— so will the awareness of the technology to the wider audience.
