Invited speakers

Prof. Ahmed Younes (Alexandria University)
Title:
Preparing for Engagements with IYQ2025 Events and Activities
Abstract: In 2025, the world will celebrate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ2025). A global proclamation by UN and lead by UNESCO dedicated to raising awareness about the transformative impact of quantum science and technology. This talk aims to guide individuals and organizations on how they can actively contribute to this landmark year and participate in the global celebration.
This talk will provide a comprehensive overview of the IYQ2025 objectives and highlight the various ways to get involved, from organizing local events and educational workshops to participating in international collaborations and outreach programs. Attendees will learn about the steps involved in planning and executing successful events, and leveraging media and digital platforms for maximum impact.
Ahmed Younes is Professor of Computer Science (Quantum Computing) at Alexandria University. He is the founder and leader of Alexandria Quantum Computing Group (AleQCG), the manager of the Center of Excellence for Quantum Computers – Alexandria University, the coordinator of the Professional Master in Quantum Computing and Quantum Information, the coordinator of QEgypt (QWorld cousin), the representative of Egypt in World Quantum Day (WQD), and the representative of the Arab States in the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ2025) Steering Committee endorsed by UNESCO.
He is the former Vice Dean of Education and Student Affairs, Faculty of Science, Alexandria University. The former Manager of the International Scientific Publishing Center, Alexandria University, the former Academic Supervisor of the Faculty of Computers and Data Science, Alexandria University, and a former Honorary Research Fellow at School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham, United Kingdom.
He obtained his PhD from University of Birmingham, United Kingdom in 2004 in quantum circuits and quantum algorithms. He introduced techniques in amplitude amplifications and quantum search algorithms, known as “Partial Diffusion” and made contributions in representing Quantum Boolean circuits as Reed-Muller logic. He published many papers in Quantum Algorithms, Quantum cryptography and Reversible Circuits.

Dr. Araceli Venegas-Gomez (Founder and CEO of QURECA Ltd.)
Title:
Careers in quantum technologies
Abstract: In this talk I will provide an overview of the quantum ecosystem, including public funding initiatives and companies around the world. Next, I will concentrate in the skills needed for quantum companies and the current job market situation. To finish, we will look at potential trends and career perspectives in the coming years.
This talk will provide a comprehensive overview of the IYQ2025 objectives and highlight the various ways to get involved, from organizing local events and educational workshops to participating in international collaborations and outreach programs. Attendees will learn about the steps involved in planning and executing successful events, and leveraging media and digital platforms for maximum impact.
Dr. Araceli Venegas-Gomez spent several years working for Airbus in Germany and France as an aerospace engineer, before falling in love with quantum mechanics. She then decided to follow her passion for physics, and moved to Scotland to pursue a PhD in quantum simulation at the University of Strathclyde. Following discussions with the different quantum stakeholders she had over the last years, Araceli identified the need to bridge the gap between businesses and academia, as well as to raise the quantum awareness to the general public. Continuing her work on outreach advocating quantum technologies, she was named the “quantum ambassador”, after winning the Optical Society Milton and Rosalind Chang Pivoting fellowship in 2019.
Araceli founded her own company called QURECA (Quantum Resources and Careers) to create a link between the different stakeholders in the quantum community through a common language, and to generate global opportunities with quantum technologies. QURECA provides a range of professional services, business development, and the solution to the quantum workforce skills bottleneck: the first online platform for quantum training, to support individuals and businesses to be part of the quantum revolution.
