The HK Institute of Quantum Science & Technology is proud to be a co-organizer of the upcoming 2026 Joint Annual Conference of Physical Societies in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, which will be held at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) from July 14 to July 17, 2026. The conference will be held at Rayson Huang Theatre, Main Campus, The University of Hong Kong (HKU). This premier regional forum brings together physics professionals, researchers, students, and industry experts across Hong Kong, Guangdong, and Macau to engage in thematic discussions, share cutting-edge research, and foster collaboration within the physics community. The conference aims to strengthen regional academic ties and promote innovative exchanges that will advance the field of physics and related sciences. The event is organized in partnership with the Physical Society of Hong Kong, Guangdong Physics Society, The Physical Society of Macau, the Quantum Science Centre of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and Qebula Mind Limited. The conference will cover a broad range of key topics, including: • Atomic, Molecular, Optical, and Quantum Physics • Condensed Matter and Statistical Physics • Materials Physics and Engineering • Biophysics and Soft Matter • Astrophysics and Astronomy • Scattering, Particle, Nuclear, and Plasma Physics • Interdisciplinary and Applied Physics • Physics Education We invite all interested parties to participate in this exciting gathering and look forward to welcoming the global physics community to Hong Kong for this outstanding event. For more details and to participate, please refer to the official poster and event information at YGA 2026 Website.

The Physical Review Workshop is a high-end academic event series initiated by the American Physical Society, dedicated to gathering top global experts in condensed matter, quantum materials and related frontier fields for in-depth academic exchanges and frontier research discussions. The series has successfully held two authoritative sessions in mainland China before. The first was hosted in 2019, focusing on new frontiers of superconductivity; the second took place in 2021, centering on quantum materials, magnetism and spintronics. Both sessions have built a solid academic reputation, promoted interdisciplinary collaboration, and effectively strengthened academic links between Chinese and international researchers. Continuing the high-standard tradition of the series, this upcoming workshop will be jointly held by the American Physical Society, the University of Hong Kong, and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Quantum Science Center in Hong Kong in early June this year. It will focus on Optical Quantum Materials, aiming to inherit the series’ academic positioning and further expand international academic cooperation in the Greater Bay Area.

HKIQST is proud to co-host the APS Global Physics Summit 2026 Hong Kong Meeting, offering researchers across the Asia-Pacific region the most accessible pathway to participate in this premier international physics gathering. Dual Access: Registration for the Hong Kong meeting includes full online access to the APS Global Physics Summit (15–20 March 2026), at a significantly reduced cost compared to direct APS registration. Participants can attend live-streamed talks, revisit recordings for 90 days, and explore e-posters without additional fees. Abstract Submission: Oral abstracts submitted by 5 January 2026 may be selected for inclusion in the official APS Virtual Session. On-Site Programme: The Hong Kong meeting (23–27 March 2026) will feature a dynamic in-person academic environment, with oral and poster presentations, networking opportunities, and engagement with a diverse community of physicists from across the region. 📍 Venue: Hong Kong Productivity Council, Kowloon Tong 🤝 Organised jointly with PSHK, and supported by APS, HKIQST, and Qebula Mind Ltd.
