The conference brings together the most renowned suppliers, investors, industrialists/end-users, academics and government representatives in the field to discuss the latest advances in the art. It also aims to bring together current and future customers and suppliers.

After two successful editions in Paris in 2023 and 2024, counting among participants Nobel Prize winner Alain Aspect and Minister for Digital Transition and Telecommunications Jean-Noël Barrot, Q2B returns to Paris in September 2025 to make its community ever more accessible to the European and international quantum computing ecosystem.
The event will be structured around plenary and specialized sessions on quantum computers, software and algorithms, quantum sensors and communications, with a focus on their applications (aeronautics, finance, pharmaceutical research, security, etc.), governments’ Quantum programs, and breaks dedicated to networking.
