Symposium
The annual Symposium is an opportunity for all members of the Centre to connect, share their research, and learn from internationally renound experts in photonic quantum science.
2026 Symposium
The 2026 Symposium will be held in Dunedin. Watch this space for more details.
We’d love to have you join us! It’s a wonderful chance to connect with DWC members from across the country, share exciting research, and collaborate with both emerging and established experts in quantum and photonics.
We hope you can be part of it!
