Growing Australia’s quantum ecosystem will be the focus when hundreds of delegates from government, industry and research converge in Brisbane next year.
The Quantum Australia Conference from 25-27 March is the inaugural public initiative of the Quantum Australia Growth Centre, which was awarded $18.7 million by the Federal Government to support the development of the quantum industry.
The annual conference was previously coordinated by the Sydney Quantum Academy, and this will be the first time it has been held outside of Sydney.
QA board member Stephanie Moroz said the timing of the conference aligns with the World Science Festival Brisbane, which will officially start in Brisbane on 21 March.
“As 2025 is the International Year of Quantum, our conference is collaborating with the Festival to create a streamlined experience for delegates throughout the week and to allow synergies between programming for these two key events,” Ms Moroz said.
“This will be an opportunity for a broad audience to learn firsthand about what is happening in the industry. We aim to raise awareness and educate industries and society generally on the opportunities of emerging quantum technologies.”
The Queensland node of Quantum Australia is led by The University of Queensland and includes Griffith University and the University of Southern Queensland.

“There will also be hands-on workshops focused on commercialisation of quantum technologies and real-world use cases for industry, government, education and research.”
