IEEE Quantum Week 2026 in Toronto drew a record 2,307 registrants—a 31.7% increase. Explore the breakthrough technologies, keynotes, and collaborations that shaped this landmark event.
Dr. Cristina Olaverri Monreal, IEEE Division IX Director IEEE Division IX brings together seven IEEE Societies: the IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society (AESS), IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS), IEEE Information Theory Society (ITS), IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society (ITSS), IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society (OES), IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS), and IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS). While each Society has a distinct field of expertise, their activities are increasingly interconnected. Sensing and remote sensing link AESS, GRSS, OES, ITSS, and SPS; communications and information technologies connect ITS, SPS, ITSS, and VTS; and intelligent, autonomous, and connected systems create common ground across the Division. IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society (AESS) AESS advances the theory, technology, design, development, integration, and operation of complex systems across space, air, ocean, and ground environments. Its scope includes radar, navigation, avionics, command and control,
