QComputing

23-25 September 2025

2025 is a double anniversary, as the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (HAS) celebrates its 200th anniversary and quantum mechanics its 100th anniversary. In honor of this, we are organizing the QTech-Bp conference at the headquarters of the HAS, in the heart of Budapest. The conference aims to give insight into the latest trends in quantum technologies to the general audience and bring together leading researchers to explore the latest breakthroughs in four main directions organized around 4 workshops, including the QComputing workshop on "Quantum computing from near-term to fault tolerance".

Scope of the workshop

The Quantum Computing from Near-Term to Fault Tolerance workshop gathers researchers to present recent progress in quantum computing and to discuss opportunities ranging from NISQ-era approaches to fault-tolerant quantum algorithms. The event welcomes students, early-career scientists, and established experts. The program includes two plenary talks, nine invited talks, contributed presentations, and a poster session. Join us for an engaging exchange of ideas, exploration of new perspectives, and opportunities to drive progress in quantum computing.
