MPTS 2026: NIST Workshop on Multi-Party Threshold Schemes 2026
On January 26-29, 2026, the NIST Workshop on Multi-Party Threshold Schemes (MPTS) 2026 will bring together multiple perspectives on Threshold Cryptography in a learning and collaborative environment. Organized under the NIST Multi-Party Threshold Cryptography (MPTC) project, this virtual workshop will gather insights about the state of the art. Within scope are topics related to the specification, implementation, analysis, and deployment of threshold schemes (and threshold-friendly primitives). The event will include invited and externally proposed talks, including previews of upcoming submissions in reply to the NIST Threshold Call.
