Quantum.Tech World Conference

Last week, Quantum Rings traveled to Boston, Massachusetts to participate in Quantum.Tech World 2026 for a weekend devoted to sharing major quantum breakthroughs and fostering new connections.

What is Quantum.Tech?

Quantum.Tech World is a leading global conference for quantum, AI, and high-performance computing. This year's event brought together more than 1,200 innovators, enterprise leaders, and decision-makers from over 40 countries. Keynote speakers included Peter Shor, the MIT mathematician behind Shor's algorithm, and Nobel Laureate John Martinis.

Event Sponsors

Quantum Rings attended the event as a key sponsor, not only hosting a booth, but also sponsoring the lanyards worn by everyone in attendance. If you look closely, you can find images of notable names like Peter Shor and Deputy Secretary of Commerce Paul Dabbar sporting the Quantum Rings and Open Quantum logos!

Our very own Quantum Rings CEO, Bob Wold, took the stage to present "Bridging the Quantum Gap," a talk on the current state of quantum technology and ways that enterprises can become quantum-ready today. The conclusion was clear — quantum may not be fully mature yet, but there is no better time to have your organization become quantum-ready.

Key Takeaways

It was an incredible week of reconnecting with friends, meeting new faces, and having thoughtful conversations about where quantum computing is headed and how organizations can begin building quantum applications today. Confidence in quantum is high. Hardware roadmaps across the industry are optimistic and projected aggressive growth. Government organizations are embracing quantum technology. Even companies that have previously retired quantum initiatives are bringing them back.

We're grateful to the Quantum.Tech organizers for putting together an event like this. It's a privilege to be able to share a room with people whose work laid the foundation for this field, and to be surrounded by people just as excited about where it's headed next. We've learned so much and we're already looking forward to seeing where the conversation goes from here.
