Let's hack the Future!

The SEA Quantathon 2025 aims to innovate quantum computing applications for social goods, allowing us to redirect the benefits of quantum technologies towards humanity. The issues chosen are in healthcare & medicine, renewable energy, and climate change relevant to all Southeast Asia countries.

Additionally, this event allows students to experience the complete tech startup cycle, including but not limited to idea formation, pitching, and prototyping solutions.

Last but not least, the format of this event encourages students from different nationalities to work together, fostering and strengthening collaborations across Southeast Asia in developing a sustainable quantum ecosystem together while focusing more on potential opportunities rather than threats in quantum computing.

What is quantum computing?

Quantum computing is an emerging technology that leverages the principles of quantum theory, such as the superposition of quantum states, quantum entanglement, and the no-cloning theorem, to process information in a fundamentally different way.

While the true quantum advantage is still under scrutiny, early evidence has shown that quantum computers can solve certain classically intractable problems in polynomial time, process datasets larger than those that classical computers can handle, and simulate correlations in data that cannot be mimicked by classical computers.

What are the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)?

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a collection of 17 time-bound, global goals set by the United Nations (UN) to achieve peace and prosperity for people and the planet by 2030, through a series of sustainable developments across environmental, economic, and social dimensions. The SDGs emphasize inclusiveness in both national and global governance.

Rightfully regarded as highly ambitious, the tive vision provided by the SDGs calls for bold and tive steps. In this context, it is vital to utilize frontier technologies such as quantum computing to address issues that continue to challenge humanity.
