By joining WIQD, you will have the chance to champion diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and be a driving force in creating a more inclusive quantum technology community. You will be at the forefront of innovative projects, taking charge of pioneering initiatives such as organizing our Annual Symposium. Collaborating with international partners, the Communication Officer, and our Head of Programmes will allow you to expand your network and influence globally. Most importantly, you will contribute to shaping the future of quantum technology, helping to build a field that values and supports the contributions of women and non-binary people.
