SuperQ Quantum's CEO to Chair Quantum Symposium at Prestigious Siam/Caims Annual Meeting; Announces Research Collaboration with the University of Lethbridge and University of Northern British Columbia
Calgary, Alberta – TheNewswire - July 21, 2025 – SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. (“SuperQ Quantum”, “SuperQ”, or the “Company”) (CSE: QBTQ; Frankfurt: 25X; OTC: ATMGD) is pleased to announce that its CEO and Board Chair, Dr. Muhammad Khan, will organize and headline a high-profile quantum session at the Third Joint SIAM/CAIMS Annual Meetings (AN25), one of the world’s foremost gatherings for computational science and industrial innovation. Dr. Shahadat Hossain, a Director of SuperQ Quantum, is also chairing a session on high-performance computing at the event. The sessions underscore SuperQ’s research collaborations with the University of Lethbridge (U of L) as well as the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC).
SIAM/CAIMS Annual Meeting: The Pinnacle of Applied Computational Innovation
The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) and the Canadian Applied and Industrial Mathematics Society (CAIMS) are internationally recognized as the standard for advancing research and real-world applications in mathematics, physics, and computer science. Their annual joint meeting is a premier event where the world’s top minds unveil breakthroughs that shape the future of science, technology, and industry. This year’s focus on quantum science and technology highlights the field’s rapid evolution from theoretical research to commercial reality.
Session Spotlight: “Hybrid Quantum-Classical Computing – Terrestrial to Cosmological Applications”
On Wednesday, July 30th, from 7:15 PM to 9:15 PM EDT, Dr. Khan will chair a symposium featuring a world-class panel of quantum researchers and industry experts. The session will explore the transformative potential of quantum computing across domains from optimizing transportation and mining operations to probing the mysteries of the cosmos.

Dr. Heliudson Bernardo (Brown University, USA/ University of Lethbridge): A postdoctoral fellow at Brown University, soon to join the University of Lethbridge as a Quantum Horizons Alberta professor, Dr. Bernardo will discuss observational signatures of quantum cosmology, connecting quantum theory to the evolution of the universe.
SuperQ’s Research Collaboration with Canadian Universities
SuperQ Quantum is also proud to highlight the leadership of Dr. Shahadat Hossain, Chair of the Computer Science Department at the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC), former Cornell scholar, and a director of SuperQ Quantum. Dr. Hossain is organizing the session “Agricultural Path Planning, Disaster Evacuation, and Beyond: Leveraging Algorithmic Innovations in Optimization for the Common Good and Environmental Sustainability” on Tuesday, July 29, from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM EDT. This session will showcase the pivotal role of optimization in addressing complex challenges in agriculture and emergency management, from reducing greenhouse gas emissions and soil erosion in agricultural path planning to developing efficient evacuation strategies during natural disasters. The session will feature research from emerging scholars, reflecting the strong research collaboration between UNBC, U of L and SuperQ Quantum in applying both classical high-performance and quantum computing to real-world transportation and logistics challenges.
The quantum session chaired by Dr. Khan exemplifies SuperQ Quantum’s commitment to advancing quantum technologies from the lab to industry. The company’s joint R&D with leading academics, including Dr. Das and Dr. Bernardo, focuses on next-generation quantum sensors for robotics, drones, and mining, leveraging the Super TM platform’s unique capabilities. These collaborations not only drive scientific discovery but also position SuperQ Quantum at the forefront of commercial quantum innovation. Both sessions are open to in-person and online attendees who register for AN25.
“The SIAM/CAIMS Annual Meeting is the world’s premier stage for computational and applied science. Bringing together a diverse set of distinguished collaborators, each a leader in quantum research and industry, demonstrates the global reach of SuperQ Quantum and our Super™ platform”, Dr. Khan commented. “Our work in quantum and high-performance computing – and now quantum sensing – is delivering practical solutions for mining, autonomy and beyond. We are honored to help shape the future of quantum science and its real-world applications.”
