We look forward to welcoming you in Singapore next week!

Singapore's Centre for Quantum Technologies will host the inaugural Asian Conference on Trapped Ions (ACTI) on April 20-22, 2026 at the Shaw Foundation on the National University of Singapore campus. 

ACTI will bring together the growing community of ion-trappers from Asia and across the globe. As an inaugural conference, this year will highlight various scientific fields covered by trapped ion research within Asia and facilitate meaningful exchange between junior and senior members of the different groups. 

Even though ACTI in this form is new, there used to be a conference that included both ion and neutral atom trapping groups majorly from Asian countries. Since then, the recent growth in the ion trapping community in Asia has reached a critical stage. It is thus necessary to start a more concerted effort of providing a platform for collaboration within the community and to the international groups in the ion trapping field. ACTI is modeled in a similar spirit as the North American and European counterparts, thereby bringing together the ion-trapping community globally for collaboration and exchange of ideas focused on ion trapping.
