About this session
Quantum technologies are transforming industries. At Black Swan Summit, delegates gain firsthand access to the laboratories where these technologies are being developed.
Hosted by UWA Physics, the tour pairs a clear introduction to quantum concepts with guided lab rotations across quantum computing, sensing, and communications.
Delegates will leave with practical insight into how these technologies work, their real-world applications, and the opportunities they create for research, collaboration, and innovation.
Programme
- Quantum 101: Introduction to Quantum Concepts
- Quantum Lab Tour (Limited to 20 slots only)
Please note:
As slots for the Quantum Lab Tour are limited, delegates are required to register their interest via this link.
Slots will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

About this session
Quantum isn’t just a future promise - it is a revolutionary technology that reshapes industries & places governments in competition to adopt & control it first. This session cuts through hype to focus on where quantum delivers practical advantage, what “quantum-ready” infrastructure means & what preparations must begin immediately for long-lifecycle systems & security. Attendees will gain clarity on what’s real, what’s next & how quantum intersects with AI, digital assets & critical infrastructure.
