Date, venue and programme status

Join us on 18 February 2027 at The Town Hall. Tickets are available now. We'll announce our full programme, doors time, session times and overall runtime as the event approaches.

We're developing a dedicated New York run sheet. We'll confirm local timings separately from our Australian programmes, so check our New York booking updates when planning your arrival, departure and additional activities.

Expect talks and practical conversations about AI in business. You do not need a technical background to take part. The aim is to connect the technology with the decisions businesses face about operations, customers, investment and implementation.

Explore our series before you attend

We held our Australian events at Melbourne Town Hall in May 2026 and Sydney Town Hall in July 2026. Our Sydney highlights film takes you inside that earlier event, while our speaker deck library provides examples of the content.

Clayton Cross's presentation covers AI operating advantage, model economics and routing different tasks to appropriate models. John McGiffin's examines enterprise maturity, the cost curve and why pilots stall before production. Jack Bear's considers business discovery when agents do the searching. Those materials illustrate our series' practical focus without prescribing the New York sessions.
