Learn from the flock
Clear foundations and focused lectures make complex ideas approachable.
Qiskit Fall Fest · Algiers 2026
Let ideas
take flight.
Five days of quantum learning, cloud experimentation, and collaborative hacking at USTHB — hosted by the Quantum Technology Club.
01 / THE INVITATION
Where wild
birds meet
quantum clouds.
A gathering for curious minds. QTC at USTHB invites students, makers, researchers, and anyone ready to explore what quantum computing can become.
Start with the fundamentals, move through expert-led lectures, build with Qiskit in the lab, then turn your ideas into a challenge-ready project. No gatekeeping — just a shared sky.

02 / THE EXPERIENCE
Learn. Build.
Share.
Build in the cloud
Use Qiskit patterns, circuits, algorithms, and hybrid solutions hands-on.
Share the sky
Meet collaborators across beginner, intermediate, and advanced tracks.
Open to the public. Registration is required. In-person attendees should confirm they can attend at USTHB and consent to event photography during registration.
03 / THE LONG VIEW
A decade
in the cloud.
2016
The cloud opens a new door
2018
Quantum learning finds a wider audience
2020
Communities experiment together
2022
Hybrid ideas move into practice
2024
Qiskit becomes a shared language
2026
QTC brings the flight to USTHB
From local experiments to a world of accessible cloud quantum learning. Qiskit gave the community a common language — now QTC is adding its own accent from Algiers.
04 / THE FLIGHT PATH
Five days.
One orbit.
Follow the program from first principles to final applause. The format changes each day — the curiosity stays constant.
