Quantum Computing Hackathon – SESAME 2026

The Quantum Computing Hackathon – SESAME 2026 is a hands-on event focused on using quantum computing to address real-world problems related to water and energy. It will bring together students and young researchers from across the Middle East and beyond, supported by international mentors, speakers, judges.

During the hackathon, participants will work in teams on practical computing challenges related to water and energy and explore how quantum computing approaches could help address them. The aim is to give participants practical experience, encourage collaboration, and connect quantum computing with real problems that are relevant to the region.

The hackathon is also aligned with relevant United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly those related to clean water and sanitation and affordable and clean energy.
