The International Quantum Olympiad is an international event dedicated to fostering the development of Quantum Education. With the slogan “Think Quantum, Solve Quantum!”, the event aims to engage students from a wide range of academic levels, including those in Grade 6-8, 9-10, and 11-University.

The olympiad serves as a crucial platform for connecting young minds with the burgeoning field of quantum computing. By participating, students gain early exposure to fundamental concepts, problems, and the future potential of quantum technologies. This early engagement is crucial for developing a pipeline of future experts in a field poised to revolutionize technology, science, and industry.

Participation in the International Quantum Olympiad is accessible, with no fee required to apply online through the official website. While the application is free, students who qualify for the final event need to be registered and supported by a sponsoring entity, such as their school, college, university, or a solo sponsor. This structure fosters institutional support for quantum education and team participation at both national and international levels, thereby further solidifying the event’s role in advancing quantum literacy.
