29th Annual Quantum Information Processing Conference 2026

Quantum Information Processing Conference (QIP) is the largest quantum information processing technology conference, which annually gathers the world's brightest researchers and industry leaders for a week long program to present and discuss the latest achievements in quantum computing, cryptography, information theory, mathematics and physics.

Since its beginnings in Aarhus, Denmark in 1998, QIP has grown into a leading global platform for quantum research. Each year, QIP attracts the world’s top scientists and researchers in quantum information, with recent editions drawing nearly 1,000 participants. 

Attendees come from the most prestigious academic institutions worldwide, and the conference also enjoys strong representation from leading high-tech companies. Notably, around one-third of QIP participants represent the emerging generation of quantum researchers.

January 24 - 30, 2026 QIP will be hosted by the University of Latvia in Riga, Latvia with tutorials taking place on January 24 and 25.
