AI is reshaping the way we work, lead and grow. Are you ready?

Technology and AI are evolving faster than ever, and organisations that invest in capability today will lead the transformation tomorrow.

Join the Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry for a must-attend event that goes beyond the hype to explore how AI is being applied across industries, and what it takes to build the skills, systems and strategies to thrive.

Through a panel of expert speakers, hands-on insights and real-world case studies, we’ll explore:

  • Skilling for the AI Economy: What future-ready teams need to know, and how to build internal capability with confidence

  • Applied AI in Action: Learn from leading businesses already using AI to drive growth, streamline operations and improve customer experience

  • Policy and Governance: Balancing innovation with safety, ethics and IP protection 

Keynote speaker: Ray Fleming, Founder of Stratentia
