Symposium Celebrating the Quantum Century 2025
Dates:
Tuesday, October 7, 2025 to Wednesday, October 8, 2025
Introduction
The year 2025 marks a historic milestone – 100 years since the birth
of Quantum Mechanics, a scientific revolution that redefined our
understanding of nature at its most fundamental level. In celebration of
this centenary and aligned with the International Year of Quantum
Science and Technology (IYQ 2025) declared by UNESCO, we proudly present
a Workshop celebrating the Quantum Century: from Puzzling Principles to
Transformative Technologies 2025 (SCQC 2025). Organized under the aegis
of the COMSNETS Association, SCQC 2025 is a special edition workshop
dedicated to reflecting on a century of quantum discoveries while
charting the course for the next era of transformative quantum
technologies. This workshop encompasses all four major drivers of
quantum technology, i.e. computing, sensing, communications, and
materials.
From the early philosophical debates on wave-particle duality and
uncertainty, to today’s advancements in quantum computing,
communication, sensing, and materials, this workshop serves as a unique
platform to bridge the journey from foundational principles to
real-world impact. SCQC 2025 will bring together a distinguished
community of researchers, industry leaders, policymakers, entrepreneurs,
startups, students, and educators.
Defining Features
- Thematic Focus: Celebrating a century of quantum science with
forward-looking perspectives.
- Keynote Addresses: Talks by eminent physicists, technologists, and
thought leaders.
- Technical Sessions: Peer-reviewed contributions spanning quantum
technologies and foundational research.
- Industry & Policy Panels: Discussions on commercialization
pathways, standardization, and global quantum strategy.
- Showcase of India’s Quantum Ecosystem: Highlighting NQM hubs,
startups, and academic excellence.
Motivations
Our symposium SCQC 2025 aims to serve as:
- A bridge between past and future, honoring quantum pioneers while
empowering today’s innovators.
- A convergence point for interdisciplinary dialogue across physics,
engineering, computer science, materials science, and industry.
- A platform that not only celebrates achievements but also addresses
critical questions: How do we accelerate the transition of quantum
research into scalable, impactful technologies?
SCQC 2025 aspires to be remembered not just as a commemorative event,
but as a catalyst for the next quantum revolution.
