The European edition broadens the scope to computing, sensing, and secure networks — the three pillars of quantum infrastructure critical to European strategic autonomy. Hosted at IMEC Headquarters in Leuven, the summit bridges the EU Quantum Flagship programme, NATO quantum sensing priorities, and post-quantum cryptography deployment across European critical infrastructure.
Senior leaders from Europe's most influential quantum programmes. Full speaker programme announced Q2 2026.

The programme spans computing, sensing, and secure networks — the three pillars of European quantum infrastructure — across two full days at IMEC Headquarters, Leuven.
From prototype to production — the hardware, software, and infrastructure challenges facing the utility-era quantum computer in Europe.
Beyond computing — how quantum sensors are redefining precision measurement in defence, navigation, and scientific discovery.
Post-quantum cryptography and quantum key distribution — preparing critical infrastructure for the cryptographically relevant quantum era.
How quantum capability is reshaping the balance of strategic power — and how Europe positions itself between US technology leadership and emerging quantum nations.
Quantum technology in operational deployment — from NATO procurement to financial infrastructure and the energy grid.
The Day 1 programme is organised around seven focused sessions — from the opening fault-tolerance keynote to the closing customer-perspective fireside.
An insightful keynote on the global race to develop scalable quantum computing architectures capable of achieving practical utility across industry, research, and enterprise applications.
A high-level discussion on how Europe's leading quantum nations are shaping policy, investment, and collaborative infrastructure strategies to accelerate the region's quantum technology leadership.
An exploration of the emerging quantum network infrastructure stack, from sensing and communication to security technologies enabling the future of interconnected quantum systems.
A panel discussion examining the practical challenges, breakthroughs, and engineering strategies driving the race toward achieving the first reliable logical qubit through quantum error correction.
A discussion on how early adopters across industries are validating real-world quantum use cases and shaping the business case for long-term infrastructure investment.
A forward-looking keynote exploring the next generation of quantum hardware innovations and the infrastructure foundations required to scale future quantum computing ecosystems.
An in-depth look at how Europe is advancing from pilot initiatives to scalable production capabilities in building a competitive and resilient quantum manufacturing ecosystem.
An exploration of the critical hardware enabling stack — including EDA tools, control systems, cryogenics, and interconnect technologies — powering the advancement of scalable quantum infrastructure.
A showcase spotlighting emerging quantum startups, innovators, and breakthrough technologies shaping the next generation of the global quantum ecosystem.
An insightful session exploring the latest quantum market trends, investment landscapes, and strategic perspectives shaping the future growth of the quantum industry.
From 7:30 AM registration to the 9:00 PM dinner reception — every session, break, and transition mapped to its time slot with the speakers taking the stage.
Four confirmed leaders on the engineering paths — superconducting (IQM), silicon CMOS (Quantum Motion), neutral atom (PASQAL), and photonic (PsiQuantum) — converging toward scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computers.
Also invited: Neil Abroug, Head of Quantum, Inria (France) · Dr. Robert Axmann, Head of Quantum Initiatives, DLR (Germany)
