Last call for Vice Chair Nominations for Technical Advisory Committees
QED-C is wrapping up its call for candidates to lead our six Technical Advisory Committees (TACs).
These leadership roles offer a chance to help guide committee priorities, foster collaboration, and shape the direction of the quantum ecosystem. Vice Chairs work alongside TAC Chairs to move committee efforts forward—helping set the annual plan, drive member engagement, and connect discussions with broader QED-C initiatives.
If you're looking for a way to deepen your involvement, build visibility as a leader, and contribute to critical conversations across industry, government, and academia, we’d like to hear from you. You must be a QED-C member to apply.
Don’t miss the opportunity to help steer the future of quantum.
Software Foundations for Valuable Quantum Computing
August 14 | 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM ET
Virtual Member Event
Join us for a collaborative workshop that brings together leaders in quantum computing software to explore critical questions facing the industry: Are we building the right tools to unlock near-term value from quantum computing? What gaps in software and algorithms should be prioritized? Featuring talks from three experts, breakout discussions, and a roundtable, this workshop will surface key insights and opportunities for collaboration—laying the groundwork for a report to guide future quantum software initiatives.

November 5-6 | New York City, NY Member Event & Invited Guests
Join us this November in New York City for the QED-C Annual Meeting and Plenary—our premier event bringing together leaders from across the quantum ecosystem with quantum-curious end users. As part of the International Year of Quantum, this gathering offers QED-C members a chance to connect, collaborate, and drive progress on key industry challenges through panels, keynotes, and working sessions. Non-members, including investors and end users, are invited to attend the Quantum Technology Expo on November 6.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) seeks information on the photonic integrated circuit (PIC) needs of quantum technology companies, particularly for systems based on quantum resources such as neutral atoms, trapped ions, color centers, quantum dots, or other matter-based quantum resources, hereafter referred to as “quantum emitters.” DARPA intends to use responses to this Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential opportunities for investment in broadly-applicable foundry platforms to provide an accessible domestic resource for end users of quantum-tailored PICs within the broader quantum manufacturing ecosystem.
