Program
QAC 2027 / PROGRAMWhere industry problems meet quantum capability.
What happens when we start with the problems industry needs to solve, rather than the technologies being developed?
The Quantum Australia Conference 2027 puts industry challenges at the centre of the conversation, bringing together global leaders, industry end users, researchers, quantum companies, investors and policymakers to explore where quantum can create genuine value.
Across two days, the program connects scientific and technological advances with real-world needs, examining what is possible today, what still needs to be proven and what it will take to commercialise, adopt and scale.
From emerging technologies and industry applications to investment, infrastructure and international collaboration, QAC 2027 is designed to move beyond discussion and create opportunities for meaningful action.

Breakthrough Briefings: Technology Frontiers | The Experiments and Technical Advances Changing What Is Possible
The frontier is moving, but scientific breakthroughs, engineering progress and deployable capability are different things.
Quantum Future Talent Careers Fair: Building the Workforce for the Quantum Economy | For students, PhD candidates and early-career talent.
For students, PhD candidates and early-career talent.
Presented by Sydney Quantum Academy, Quantum Future Talent (QFT) is Australia’s biggest quantum careers fair. In 2027, QFT will join the Quantum Australia Conference, bringing together students, early-career professionals, educators and industry leaders to explore the skills and capabilities driving Australia’s fast-growing quantum economy.
Through keynote presentations, panel discussions and expo networking opportunities, attendees will gain practical insights into emerging career pathways, in-demand technical and non-technical skills, and sector hiring trends as quantum technologies move towards commercialisation.
Connecting aspiring talent with leading organisations, QFT offers a unique opportunity to build the knowledge and networks needed to stand apart in this rapidly evolving field.
Better Science Needs Better Teams | What People, Disciplines and Perspectives Do We Need to Solve Harder Problems?
The frontier is moving, but scientific breakthroughs, engineering progress and deployable capability are different things.
Quantum Beyond The Lab | Where Are Sensing, Timing and Navigation Becoming Real-World Capabilities?
Sensing, timing and navigation provide tangible examples of quantum technologies moving beyond controlled laboratory conditions. Delegates should understand what has been demonstrated and what technical challenges remain.
Who Builds the Infrastructure Behind the Quantum Economy | What Does It Take to Move from Breakthroughs to Systems at Scale?
Scaling quantum requires more than better quantum technology. It needs an ecosystem of manufacturing, test and shared facilities, engineering, cloud/HPC and data-centre infrastructure. Australia needs to decide what it should build, share, access and partner for.
