SUMMARY:AI Leadership Sprint
DESCRIPTION:Part of WA AI HUB Leadership Forum and Sprint 2026\, a West Tech Fest event. \n\n\n\n\nAI is now writing reports\, drafting decisions\, and making recommendations inside organisations every day. The hard part is not using the tools. It is knowing when to trust AI’s output and when to push back. \nThe AI Leadership Sprint is a hands-on\, two-hour boardroom simulation. You will not sit and listen to slides. You will work through a realistic scenario with your peers to learn how to spot when AI is confidently wrong\, ask the right questions of any output\, and set clear rules for how your team relies on it. \nWhat you will take home: \n\nFive-Step Method → A simple process to check and challenge AI outputs.\nOne-Page Guide → Outlines who signs off on decisions.\nEscalation Rules → Defines when a decision must be escalated.\nTeam Boundaries → Clear limits your team will not cross.\n\nWho this training is for: \n\nFounders → Build smarter products and scale responsibly with AI.\nBusiness Owners → Streamline operations and unlock growth.\nExecutives → Shape governance\, accountability\, and strategic adoption.\nGovernment Leaders → Drive policy\, compliance\, and public-sector innovation

SUMMARY:AI Leadership Forum
DESCRIPTION:The AI Leadership Forum brings together enterprise directors\, government leaders\, and technology delegates from across the Asia-Pacific to work through questions that sit above any single tool: how responsibility is shared\, how to stay on the right side of regulation across borders\, and how organisations keep the trust of their customers and communities as they scale AI. \nExpect a genuine exchange of ideas\, not a lecture. You’ll hear how leaders across Western Australia\, the eastern states\, and neighbouring innovation hubs are approaching the same challenges. You will leave with a clearer view of what good AI governance looks like in practice and what it should mean for the people at the top. \n\n\nPart of the WA AI HUB Leadership Forum and Sprint 2026\, a West Tech Fest satellite event.

SUMMARY:Bright Minds\, Bold Voices: From research to reality – Australia's opportunity
DESCRIPTION:What happens when an influential Australian changemaker meets a trailblazing scientist? To find out\, join the Australian Academy of Science for the 2026 Public Speaker Series. \nFrom the solar panels on your roof to the medicines in your cabinet\, Australian ingenuity makes everyday life better. Australia has world-class research – but it’s time to back our own ability to make it count. We’re exploring how we invest in science and what it really takes to turn great ideas into change that matters to us all. \nIn conversation with ABC Canberra’s Lish Fejer\, we’ll be joined by: \n\nSenator David Pocock\, former captain of the Wallabies and vice-captain of the Brumbies. Now an independent senator for the ACT.\nDr Kate Cornick\, CEO of Tech Council of Australia. In 2025 Dr Cornick was a Panel Member for the Strategic Examination of R&D – a once in a generation review of the national R&D system.\n\nThis event is for everyone including students\, professionals\, academics\, policymakers\, lifelong learners\, and those simply curious about how science impacts our everyday lives. \nRegister for the free Livestream (online)
