SUMMARY:CSIRO Conversations: Quantum for Every Business
DESCRIPTION:Quantum is moving fast and it’s already creating real opportunities for Australian businesses. This event unpacks what’s real and what’s coming next.\nQuantum is at the same stage AI was a decade ago\, quietly moving from research labs into real world tools. This event helps industry understand what’s real\, what’s hype\, and where the near term opportunities lie and who can help. Where today’s computers check one option at a time\, quantum can explore many possibilities at once. That makes it powerful for decision making and resource management when it comes to things like routing trucks\, detecting minerals\, managing patients in a hospital\, securing communications or modelling new materials. \nQuantum is becoming practical and commercially relevant far sooner than most businesses expect. It’s already emerging in: \n\nSupply chains: quantum inspired optimisation is helping logistics companies reduce fuel use and manage disruptions.\nFinance: banks are exploring quantum safe encryption to protect transactions.\nQuantum sensing: ultra precise measurements for mining\, agriculture\, health and defence.\n\nOur expert panellists will translate a complex emerging technology into a grounded\, industry relevant discussion on: \n\nWhat quantum technologies can do today.\nWhat’s coming next.\nHow Australian businesses can prepare responsibly and competitively.\nHow quantum intersects with supply chain resilience\, national security\, and economic pressures.\n\nPre-submit your questions to the expert panellists ahead of the webinar

The AUKUS announcement and a more consequential U.S. Force Posture Initiative commitment coupled with a bigger WA shipbuilding focus\, as evidenced in the wake of Australia’s recent Combatant Surface Fleet Review\, has put HMAS Stirling and the Australian Marine Complex in Henderson in both the national and regional spotlight. \nWe are delighted to invite to Perth for this special event and program\, Dr Zack Cooper\, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington D.C.\, Professor Alessio Patalano\, Professor of War & Strategy in East Asia\, Director\, King’s Japan Programme\, King’s College in London\, Jennifer Parker\, Expert Associate\, National Security College\, ANU\, Professor Peter Dean\, Director\, Foreign Policy and Defence at the United States Studies Centre\, The University of Sydney. Linda Dawson\, Deputy Director General\, Industry\, Science and Innovation at the Department of Jobs\, Tourism\, Science and Innovation will moderate this panel discussion and the Honourable David Johnston will be our Master of Ceremonies. \nWe hope you are available to join us as our expert speakers take a deep dive into how Western Australia fits into AUKUS and broader U.S.\, U.K. and Australian strategic thinking about the region. \nThis public event will take place in the theatre-auditorium located at The University Club of Western Australia. Please register as places are limited \nDate: Tuesday 25 June 2024 \nTime: Registration: 5:45 pm – 6:15 pm (Doors open @ 6 pm) \nEvent: 6:15 pm – 8:00 pm \nNetworking Reception: 8:00 pm – 8:45 pm \nLocation: The University Club of Western Australia – Hackett Entrance #1\, Hackett Drive\, Crawley. \nThis is a free event so registration is essential by Friday 21 June for catering purposes.

SUMMARY:Start with Security\, End with Trust: Leveraging SaaS to Fight Cyber Threats
DESCRIPTION:How do you turn a cyber attack into a non-existent threat? \nAI and ML bring many valuable applications across the organisation\, delivering amazing opportunities — as well as threats\, and the responsibility of ethics. Understanding the intersection of security challenges and product architecture is vital. \nTransforming security practices requires enabling teams with foundational security principles in the design\, development and running of cloud services\, which can make all the difference when it comes to cyber threats. Security should be at the core of any SaaS product — not just bolted on at the end. Product design\, cloud operations\, and data integration are all key elements to getting it right. \nJoin Mathew to explore leadership strategies to achieve trust and security\, sharing best practices\, everyday applications\, and the pitfalls to watch out for. \nAs always\, we will have Q&A time plus networking over drinks and pizzas. \nRegistration essential. \n— \nThank you to our sponsors JourneyOne and to our hosts at Spacecubed for helping us make these events happen.
