World Quantum Day
2025-04-14
Discover the language of the universe

Why April 14?

The World Quantum Day is celebrated on April 14, a reference to 4.14, the rounded first digits of Planck’s constant: 4.1356677×10−15 eV⋅s = 0.000 000 000 000 004 1356677 electron volt second, a product of energy and time that is the fundamental constant governing quantum physics.
Why is Planck’s constant so important? Did you know it is used to define the kilogram? And, otherwise, how does it affect our lives? These are some of the questions, among many others, that will be addressed by the World Quantum Day activities.
And what other dates and numbers do you consider important for Quantum Science and Technology? When was quantum physics first taught in your country? And in your university/school? Check out our Quantum@Calendar project, which aims to record historical quantum events and make every day a quantum day!

Goals

The World Quantum Day aims at engaging the general public in the understanding and discussion of Quantum Science and Technology, namely:
how it helps us understand Nature at its most fundamental level,
how it helped us develop technologies that are crucial for our life today,
and how it can lead to future scientific and technological revolutions, and how these can impact our society.
The World Quantum Day is an initiative from quantum scientists around the World, launched on 14 April 2021 as the countdown towards the first global celebration on 14 April 2022.
It is a decentralized and bottom-up initiative, inviting all scientists, engineers, educators, communicators, entrepreneurs, technologists, historians, philosophers, artists, museologists, producers, etc., and their organisations, to develop their own activities, such as outreach talks, exhibitions, lab tours, panel discussions, interviews, artistic creations, etc., to celebrate the World Quantum Day around the World.

53rd ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages
2026-01-11 08:00 - 2026-01-17 17:00 | rennes, Rennes, France
The annual Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages is a forum for the discussion of all aspects of programming languages and programming systems. Both theoretical and experimental papers are welcome on topics ranging from formal frameworks to experience reports. We seek submissions that make principled, enduring contributions to the theory, design, understanding, implementation, or application of programming languages.
The symposium is sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN, in cooperation with ACM SIGACT and ACM SIGLOG

Quantum Power and National Security: Canada’s New Strategic Imperative
2026-02-24 11:30 - 17:00
Quantum technologies are rapidly moving from concept to capability and are establishing themselves as a foundation of both modern defence and economic competitiveness. From NORAD modernization to NATO’s quantum strategy, allied nations are positioning defence as a key partner and first adopter of these dual-use technologies—integrating quantum sensing, communications, and emerging quantum computing capabilities into their core missions.
New federal investments signal the beginning of a similar shift in Canada, with quantum being positioned as a key engine of Canada’s economic growth and national security.
On February 24, 2026, the Empire Club of Canada will present Quantum Power and National Security: Canada’s New Strategic Imperative. In this timely address, Lisa Lambert, CEO of Quantum Industry Canada (QIC), will examine how quantum capabilities will shape Canada’s economic outlook and security posture, what sovereign capacity is required to protect critical systems, and how Canada can position itself as a strategic contributor within the G7 and NATO alliances.
Further insights and perspectives will follow from a distinguished panel moderated by The Honourable Erin O’Toole, P.C., C.D., and featuring Francesco Bova, Associate Professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management; David Roy-Guay, Founder and CEO of SBQuantum; and Lieutenant-General Darcy Molstad, CD, Commander Canadian Joint Forces Command.

Quantum Computing and Sensing for Weather and Climate Applications Workshop
2026-08-03 08:00 - 2026-08-05 17:00 | Boulder, Boulder, CO, United States
Climate and weather simulations involve computationally intensive models that demand vast processing power and sophisticated algorithms to capture the dynamic interactions within the Earth’s climate system. Constraints on power consumption and computational processing power limit the performance of simulations using classical supercomputers. Quantum computing can revolutionize how we understand and predict climate and weather phenomena by leveraging its exponentially larger computational space, parallel processing, and efficient handling of large-scale optimization problems. Quantum sensing is poised to enable earth and atmospheric monitoring with improved accuracy and sensitivity by utilizing quantum principles, providing critical data to enhance weather and climate models.
This workshop aims to bridge the knowledge gap between the quantum and climate science fields, sparking innovation through shared insights and interdisciplinary strategies that could lead to the next-generation of climate and weather models. The workshop will provide a platform for quantum specialists and weather and climate scientists to discuss potential approaches to complex climate problems, explore practical pathways for integrating quantum computing into existing climate research frameworks, and establish a collaborative research agenda that drives both fields towards breakthroughs.
