On behalf of the Trans - Tasman Business Circle and our partner HCLTech, we are delighted to invite you, or your senior nominee, to a private executive luncheon focused on the practical realities of scaling AI within complex organisations featuring Professor Marek Kowalkiewicz, Chair in Digital Economy, Queensland University of Technology Business School.
Moving from pilots and experimentation to enterprise-scale adoption requires new operating models, infrastructure, governance disciplines, workforce capability and organisational readiness.
This executive dialogue will bring together senior leaders across government and industry to explore the practical realities of operationalising AI at scale and creating measurable value while maintaining trust, security and resilience.
Bringing together perspectives from HCLTech, Dell Technologies and Nvidia, this discussion will support large-scale AI transformation programmes globally, the discussion will focus on practical leadership decisions rather than technology hype.
Discussion themes will include:
• What prevents promising AI initiatives from scaling?
• Which capabilities need to exist before AI can be trusted in production?
• How do leaders balance speed, governance and operational resilience?
• What does successful AI implementation actually look like at enterprise scale?
Conducted under the Chatham House Rule, this discussion will provide an opportunity for leaders to openly exchange experiences, compare approaches and explore what is working in practice.
Sofitel Brisbane Central (Prive Room), 249 Turbot Street, Brisbane
