Dear Colleague, On September 12–14, 2025, Jaipur, India, will host the International Conference on Quantum Science (ICQS2025), held jointly with the 4th Seminar on the Discovery and Detection of Gravitational Waves. This landmark gathering will unite over 200 researchers, engineers, and industry leaders at the intersection of quantum science and gravitational‐wave astrophysics. Over three days of plenary lectures, invited talks, focused sessions, hands‐on workshops, poster presentations, and roundtable panels, participants will: • Bridge theory and experiment across quantum foundations, materials, computation, communication, sensing, software, and engineering. • Advance gravitational‐wave science through quantum‐enhanced instrumentation, multi‐messenger synergy, and quantum‐gravity phenomenology. • Cultivate interdisciplinary collaboration and forge new partnerships in academia, government laboratories, and industry. Building on three successful editions of the “Discovery & Detection of Gravitational Waves” workshop (2022–2024), ICQS2025 formally integrates deep quantum‐science perspectives with the full spectrum of gravitation research. The detection of gravitational waves in 2015 validated Einstein’s general relativity and inaugurated a new era in observational astrophysics, while quantum mechanics underpins the next generation of sensors, computers, and communication networks. By uniting these two pillars, ICQS2025 seeks to: • Unify theoretical frameworks: connect experts in quantum information, black‐hole thermodynamics, topological quantum matter, and semiclassical gravity; explore loop quantum gravity, string theory, asymptotic safety, and analogue models in an astrophysical context. • Accelerate detector innovation: showcase squeezed‐light interferometry, quantum nondemolition measurements, optomechanical transducers, and next‐generation terrestrial and space‐based detectors with quantum‐limited readouts and cryogenic technologies. • Enhance multi‐messenger astronomy: integrate gravitational‐wave data with electromagnetic, neutrino, and cosmic‐ray observations; leverage quantum machine‐learning algorithms to correlate signals and extract faint or transient events. • Chart future directions: address open questions in quantum advantage, distributed quantum computing, hybrid quantum–classical simulations of astrophysical phenomena, and evaluate global strategies for detector networks, open‐source software, and interdisciplinary training. Jaipur—home to over 30 universities and research institutions—has a rich tradition of hosting high‐impact scientific events, including the 2024 3rd Seminar on the Discovery and Detection of Gravitational Waves. Its cultural heritage, welcoming atmosphere, and strategic location offer participants a unique opportunity to experience India’s diversity while engaging with cutting‐edge research. The Organizing Committee warmly invites you to join us at Jaipur National University for ICQS2025, a dynamic platform for academic growth, partnership formation, and exploration of the latest trends in quantum and gravitational‐wave science. We look forward to an inspiring, collaborative, and intellectually enriching experience. Warm regards, ICQS2025 Conference Committee
