Quantum for Educators (formerly known as Schrödinger's Class) equips you with the ability to bring quantum science into your classrooms and confidently teach your students about quantum physics, quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and more.
The QKD security proof workshop is an annual workshop series focused on technical security proofs. Our focus in the workshop is to facilitate interactions and discussions between participants.
Join us for Quantum Connections May 1-2, 2024. This year we’re highlighting Quantum Perspectives: the impacts and outlooks driving our future.
ETSI and the Institute for Quantum Computing are pleased to announce the 10th ETSI/IQC Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference, taking place in Singapore on May 14-16, 2024. The event will be hosted by the Centre for Quantum Technologies, National University of Singapore.
This event was designed for members of the business, government, and research communities with a stake in cryptographic standardization to facilitate the knowledge exchange and collaboration required to transition cyber infrastructures and business practices to make them safe in an era with quantum computers. It aims to showcase both the most recent developments from industry and government and cutting-edge potential solutions coming out of the most recent research.
Join us for Quantum Today, where we sit down with researchers from the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) to talk about their work, its impact and where their research may lead.
In this special session, we’ll be joined by Joan Arrow and Özge Gülsayin of the Quantum Ethics Project, a team of researchers exploring the intersection of quantum and society. We’ll discuss how to advocate for the responsible and inclusive development of quantum technologies through education and research, and why an ethics lens is important in even the early stages of technological innovation.
In celebration of the International Day of Light on May 16th, Dr. Katanya Kuntz from the IQC will be joining Exploring by the Seat of Your Pants to talk about what light is really made of, how to catch a photon in the sky, and how this technology can be used to keep our communication safe and secure. Katanya coordinates the Science Team for the Quantum Encryption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat) mission, which is building a satellite that can detect individual particles of light called photons sent from the ground to outer space.
IQC, a scientific partner of Quantum Shorts, is pleased to announce the 2022 film festival award winners.
New HyperSpace collaboration, including Dr. Thomas Jennewein from the Institute for Quantum Computing, envisions secure quantum connections across the Atlantic Ocean.
Dr. Raymond Laflamme, founding director of the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo, has been named Chair of the National Quantum Strategy’s (NQS) Quantum Advisory Council. The announcement was made today by the Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Canada’s Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry. Laflamme will work in close collaboration with fellow Chair Dr. Stephanie Simmons, Chief Quantum Officer of Photonic and IQC affiliate.
