Scope and Objectives: In recent decades, quantum researchers have made remarkable progress,propelling quantum technology into the spotlight for its potential to revolutionize classical communications, networking, and computing. The inherent advantages of quantum technology, particularly in terms of security, privacy, efficiency and scalability, have opened new frontiers in information technology.Quantum technology has demonstrated its ability to introduce applications with no equivalent in the classical realm, marking a breakthrough towards an unimaginable future.The establishment of connections betweenthe quantum source node and destination node using quantum hardware and devices facilitates qubit transmissions, which in turn enables advancements in quantum computing, artificial intelligence and cryptography and further services and applications.Envisioned as a transformative force,quantum services are anticipated to span the globe, leveraging quantum terrestrial components, satellites, airplanes, ships, and other vehicles.The quantum future holds the promise ofnearly unconditional security, super-computing power, large capacity, even at high velocity, and heightened privacy. Our conference welcomessubmissions across diverse research areas related to quantum hardware, communications, networking, computing, cryptography, artificial intelligence, and their associated systems and applications. The topics of interests are covered by the following tracks: *Track 1: Quantum Hardware and Devices* https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track1.php Chairs: Junyu Liu, University of Chicago/qBraid/SeQure, USA Kenny Heitritter, qBraid Co., USA Peter Mueller, IBM Zurich Research Laboratory, Switzerland ** *Track 2: Quantum Information Networks*** https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track2.php Chairs:David Elkouss Coronas, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, Japan Kaiping Xue, University of Science and Technology of China, China Marcello Caleffi, University of Naples Federico II, Italy *Track 3:**Quantum Computing* https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track3.php Chairs:Jing Zhang, Shanxi University, China Ahmed Farouk, South Valley University, Egypt Hui Khoon Ng, National University of Singapore, Singapore *Track 4: Security in the Quantum Age* https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track4.php Chairs: Rongxing Lu, University of New Brunswick, Canada Dung Duong, University of Wollongong, Australia Chi Cheng, China University of Geosciences, China ** *Track 5:**Quantum Key Distribution and Quantum Cryptography*** https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track5.php Chairs: Martin, Vicente, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain Momtchil Peev, Huawei Technologies Duesseldorf GmbH, Germany ** *Track 6: Quantum Services and Applications* https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track6.php Chairs:Qun Li, William and Mary, USA ** *Track 7:**Quantum**Theories and Experiments* https://www.ieee-qcnc.org/2024/track7.php Chairs: Yingkai Ouyang.
