ABOUT 2025 EVENT
The Qiskit Fall Fest Nairobi was a multi-day quantum computing program held in October, celebrated a century-long history of quantum science by marking the 100th anniversary of the initial development of quantum mechanics, and brought together students, researchers, and professionals to explore quantum technologies, frameworks, and real-world applications.
The event combined expert-led learning sessions, a guided hackathon challenge, and community networking, with activities conducted primarily online and a final in-person ceremony at Strathmore University.
