Melbourne Quantum Diamond Hub Launch
Victoria is home to one of the world's strongest concentrations of quantum diamond expertise, and we're thrilled to be able to showcase it!
Join us for the official launch of the Melbourne Quantum Diamond Hub, a new initiative bringing together researchers, industry leaders, government, and investors to accelerate the growth of Melbourne's quantum diamond ecosystem.
The launch will mark a pivotal step in positioning the state's diamond capabilities on the national and global stage, strengthening connections across the local sector, and building the partnerships needed to drive the next wave of commercial and research breakthroughs in quantum diamond.
Hear directly from leaders across Melbourne's quantum diamond community, including Quantum Brilliance, the University of Melbourne, Phasor Quantum, FeBI Technologies, Space CoLab, RMIT, QUBIC and more.
You'll also have the opportunity to connect with representatives from the 14 founding member organisations of the Melbourne Quantum Diamond Hub, meet the rest of the community driving it forward, and be part of a defining moment for quantum innovation in Victoria.
