About

AI is here – the genie is out of the bottle. The question now is how we manage its impact, including the growing role of data centres, and shape a digital future that benefits society.

This event brings together industry, government and academia to explore Australia’s digital transformation and how we can balance innovation and economic growth with environmental responsibility and community expectations. The panel features Belinda Dennett, CEO, Data Centres Australia; Dr Sarah Mansfield MP, Australian Greens; Michael Helmer, Chief Risk Officer, NextDC; Distinguished Professor Lisa Given; Professor Gary Rosengarten; and Professor Priya Rajagopalan from RMIT University.
