2026 IBM Qiskit Fall Fest Plus
Quantum computing for
young Nigerian minds.
Two focused programmes. Five secondary schools. An open university community. One practical invitation to help shape Africa’s quantum future.
An annual learning programme hosted at OAU, growing from a student challenge into a wider platform for access, research culture, and collaboration.
Our trajectory
Three years of turning curiosity into capability.
Each edition has its own character, while every year advances the same mission: make quantum computing tangible and reachable.

Why this matters
Africa should help define the quantum era—not only observe it.
Exposure becomes confidence. Confidence becomes participation. Participation is how new research communities begin.
