Join us for a special evening in Vancouver on November 25 with leading researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science who are working at the forefront of quantum research. 

This intimate dinner takes place on the eve of a scientific workshop that will launch an exciting international collaboration in quantum science. The leadership support of Ron Stern is making the workshop possible, creating an opportunity for scientists to come together, exchange ideas, and explore where their collective expertise could lead. 

Prof. Roee Ozeri, whose lab invented Israel’s first quantum computer, will be joined by other world-class scientists from the Weizmann Institute. They’ll take us inside the wonderful world of quantum physics: demystifying the science and sharing advances emerging from their labs. These efforts are laying the foundation for revolutionary applications, from ultra-secure networks and powerful quantum processors to next-generation materials and quantum-enhanced medical diagnostics. 

The following day, Weizmann scientists will join researchers from the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University for the workshop, marking the beginning of a new collaboration and an opportunity to forge connections across institutions.
