Australia’s quantum moment is global.

Quantum is no longer a race run in isolation. Around the world, governments are backing national strategies, investing in critical capability and forging international partnerships to secure economic advantage and long-term technological leadership.

The Quantum Australia Conference 2026 is where this global momentum comes together.

Taking place in Adelaide on 29–30 April (with networking events on 28 April), QAC2026 brings together industry end users, researchers, startups, investors, policymakers and global partners to focus on how quantum technologies are moving from research into real-world productivity, capability and impact.

This year, we are welcoming international delegations travelling from France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, the Czech Republic, the UK, Japan, Korea and more, creating a rare opportunity for global dialogue, partnership and collaboration, all in one place.
