Quantum Technology International Conference – QTech 2020
The growing ability to manipulate quantum systems is paving the way for a second quantum revolution and a number of initiatives worldwide have been formed to foster quantum technologies. These exciting novel applications are exploiting specific quantum properties which are not accessible with classical resources such as superposition and entanglement of individual quantum systems.
The objectives of the QTech conference, which will take place on November 2-4, 2020, is to present the latest developments of quantum technologies in the domains of quantum communication, computation, simulation, sensors and metrology, and their implementation using various platforms from atoms and ions to solid states, superconducting circuits and optics.
How to access the conference rooms?
An intuitive conference dashboard has been designed to provide you with quick and easy access to all conference rooms.
We would like this edition to be interactive with AV discussions over the talks and full of opportunities to network. Providing you with a smooth meeting technically speaking is also one of our main priorities.
A welcome desk will be available every day with a staff member that you can talk with and each participant can ask for a technical test prior to the event by sending an email to qtech2020@premc.org. You will have access to the participant’s list before the conference via a networking app and several activities will be available during the breaks to facilitate the networking between participants.
- TOPICS
- Quantum information processing and computing
- Quantum simulation
- Quantum sensors and quantum metrology
- Quantum communication
- Quantum networks and repeaters
- Fundamental science for quantum technologies
- Quantum optics and non-classical light sources
- Quantum light-matter interfaces and memories
- Solid states and hybrid systems
- Quantum non-linear optics

ANNOUNCEMENT
After careful consideration, the Chairs and the Organizing Committee have decided to transform QTech 2020 into an online conference. Indeed, travel restrictions and pandemic progress are creating too much uncertainty regarding the organization of in-person conferences. In addition, many of you have contacted us to inform that they prefer the alternative of the online meeting instead of a cancellation. This will not replace the in-person conference but it allows the community to maintain a link. Moreover, this conference will be eco-friendly and cheaper since everyone can participate from home.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THE PAST EDITION
What a fantastic first day at @QTech_Quantum in Paris at the amazing École Normale Supérieure Ulm. We've heard inspiring talks on the latest developments in quantum technologies & met very many inspiring people.
