NVIDIA at IEEE Quantum Week 2026

Explore how accelerated computing and AI are advancing the path to fault-tolerant quantum computing.

What Is IEEE Quantum Week 2026?

IEEE Quantum Week 2026 is a premier global forum that unites researchers, developers, and industry leaders to advance the future of quantum technology. The event focuses on translating research into real-world impact by exploring the convergence of AI for quantum, distributed quantum systems, and quantum software engineering.

NVIDIA attended IEEE Quantum Week 2026 to showcase how accelerated computing and AI platforms are reshaping the quantum ecosystem. Featuring a keynote, hands-on tutorials and workshops, and a booth, NVIDIA’s presence at IEEE Quantum Week 2026 spanned the full arc of quantum progress.

Keynote by NVIDIA VP Krysta Svore at IEEE Quantum Week

NVIDIA Vice President of Applied Research for Quantum Computing Krysta Svore gave a keynote at IEEE Quantum Week. In “Designing the Accelerated Quantum Supercomputer for the Fault-Tolerant Era,” she explored how advances in AI, accelerated computing, and simulation are creating new opportunities to rethink how quantum systems are designed, built, and operated. Realizing this vision requires a full-system architecture integrated with the QPU, a software stack spanning compilation through real-time operation, and large-scale simulation to enable unprecedented co-design across the quantum computing stack.
