About this Event
Considering a career in quantum? Discover the exciting places this flourishing industry can take you and network with the people helping shape its future.
Quantum science and technology is rapidly evolving and so too are the jobs of tomorrow. The CSIRO predicts Australia’s quantum technology industry will be worth an estimated $6 billion, employing 19,400 Australians by 2045. With Australia’s quantum progress expected to exceed this forecast and myriad career options on the horizon, Quantum Future Talent is your opportunity to explore what it takes to be part of this promising future.
After a sold-out inaugural event last year, Quantum Future Talent returns in 2026 with a dedicated Careers Fair, proudly presented by Sydney Quantum Academy.
Read the 2025 event recap or watch the highlights.
The 2026 Careers Fair connects you directly with potential employers, industry leaders and university representatives. It’s your opportunity to explore the study and career pathways shaping Australia’s quantum future.
With 30+ exhibitors expected and a panel discussion featuring industry and high-profile thought leaders, you’ll learn more about the job-ready skills and attributes that will set you apart in a highly competitive and growing industry, no matter which stage of your career you are at.
