SUMMARY:For Purpose Leaders Aged Care Sustainability Breakfast
DESCRIPTION:Join senior leaders for this critical conversation on Aged care sustainability\, pricing pressures\, and way forward\, LIVE streamed nationally\n\n\n\nATTEND Online or In-Person \nThe Aged Care Sustainability Breakfast is a focused policy conversation\, not a broad industry showcase\, bringing together the people shaping and responding to reform: providers\, financial analysts\, peak bodies and government representatives. The agenda is deliberately narrow: sustainability\, pricing\, and what needs to happen before the next Federal Budget. \nWith sector pre-budget submissions due in the coming months and key funding milestones landing from March 2027\, this breakfast is timed to sharpen the sector’s ask\, and put it in front of the people who can act on it.

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:HILT CRC Public Webinar: Unlocking investment and competitiveness in industrial decarbonisation
DESCRIPTION:How can Australia unlock the investment needed to decarbonise its energy-intensive industries while maintaining their international competitiveness?\nThis webinar introduces a new HILT CRC project RP3.011\, Unlocking investment and competitiveness in industrial decarbonisation through green finance\, environmental markets and institutional capital. The project is exploring how green finance\, environmental markets and institutional capital can help overcome the barriers to investment in industrial decarbonisation. \nFocusing on hard-to-abate sectors such as iron and steel\, alumina and aluminium\, and cement\, the discussion will examine how financing structures\, risk allocation and emerging revenue opportunities can influence the commercial viability of low-emissions industrial technologies. \nHosted by project leader Dr Daniel Rossetto (Adelaide University)\, the webinar will explore the challenges investors and project sponsors face in financing industrial decarbonisation\, the role of the broader project revenue stack in strengthening project economics and bankability\, and the opportunities to mobilise private and institutional capital at scale. \nDesigned as an introduction to the project\, this session will establish the key questions and themes for a series of deeper discussions planned for 2027. It will examine some of the earlier research that shaped RP3.011 and bring together perspectives from industry\, finance and research to explore how Australia can develop more investable pathways to industrial decarbonisation while strengthening the competitiveness of its industrial base. \nThe webinar will also feature a presenter offering an industry perspective. It is ideal for project developers\, contractors\, OEMs\, financiers\, investors\, think tanks and policymakers with an interest in heavy industry’s low-carbon transition.
