The Convergence Center for Applied Quantum Computing creates the industry collaborations that unlock the greatest potential for quantum applications. With a current focus on applications in the life sciences, we approach quantum from an industry first perspective, working closely with life sciences leaders to explore promising applications using applied quantum. Our industry advisory board includes leaders in the life sciences, investors and researchers, who, together, create an interdisciplinary community of experts.

In March 2025, we launched our first program, Convergence Quantum, in Kendall Square, a one day, invitation-only gathering, which brought together our community for the first time. With topics ranging from the current state of the market to investor strategies to emerging opportunities, the exchange of ideas and the connections that were forged created a strong foundation for our continued work.

Our Salon Series is a quarterly program of curated discussions where we will discuss what’s possible, what are the steps that we need to take and how we can collaborate in Massachusetts and beyond to move quantum applications in the life sciences forward. We welcome your participation in our community as we collaborate with one another.

The Convergence Center for Applied Quantum Computing is produced by the team that has hosted the Convergence Forum, an annual invitation-only gathering of life sciences executives, since 2004. Find out more about the program and those who attend here.
