ICQCS 2026, March 16-20, Paris, France

International Conference on Quantum Communication and Security (ICQCS 2026), 16-20 March 2026, Paris, France ID Quantique, will join the International Conference on Quantum Communication and Security (ICQCS) in Paris from 16–20 March 2026. Our CEO & co‑founder and IonQ VP Science, Grégoire Ribordy, will deliver an industry keynote on “Trends in Quantum Networking”. ICQCS 2026 is a five-day conference dedicated to quantum-safe communication, bringing together communities that are often addressed separately: post-quantum cryptography, QKD theory and protocols, experimental QKD, and network integration. Hosted in central Paris, the event fosters collaboration between cryptographers, experimentalists, engineers, network architects and industry leaders to accelerate the next generation of secure communications. ID Quantique, an IonQ company, is proud to participate in the Industry Session, where Grégoire Ribordy (CEO & co-founder of ID Quantique, VP Science at IonQ) will deliver a keynote talk on: “Trends in Quantum Networking” In this session, Grégoire will explore how quantum networks are moving from research projects to critical infrastructure, and what this means for governments, telecom operators and enterprises that need to protect sensitive data for decades to come. He will highlight: How QKD, quantum-safe cryptography and classical networks come together in real-world deployments Why the “harvest now, decrypt later” risk makes long-term data protection urgent today Practical steps to start building resilient, quantum-safe network architectures that can evolve with future technologies As a global leader in quantum-safe security and quantum detection systems, ID Quantique helps customers future-proof mission-critical data, ensure compliance and reduce cyber risk in a rapidly changing threat landscape.
