27th - 29th April 2026
The 5th Workshop for Quantum Repeaters and Networks
Catapult, Singapore
 
															Welcome to WQRN5!
Welcome to the website for the 5th edition of the Workshop for Quantum Repeaters and Networks, hosted in Singapore by the Centre for Quantum Technologies.
The goal of this workshop is to bring the active research community together to discuss the progress, challenges and new possible directions for quantum repeaters and networks. We invite researchers working on key enabling technologies and system integration, protocols for connecting repeaters across network links with high fidelity, architectures for large-scale networks, and applications of distributed quantum entanglement.
The WQRN has been and continues to be a limited-attendance, few-day workshop, in which participants are given the opportunity to share ideas, directions, and concerns to advance the state of the field. Talks are by invitation only and catered to broadly cover the applications, theory, components, and worldwide directions in quantum repeaters and networks. These talks frame group discussion sessions for which all participants are welcome to contribute; participants are also welcome to contribute to a poster session.
Committee
The WQRN series is guided by a steering committee and supported by a programme subcomittee. These commitees are listed at wqrn.org. The host also provides a subcommittee, which for the 2026 edition in Singapore comprises the members below.
