Featuring exclusive talks on AI from Google and a consultant at OpenAI

Sofitel Sydney Wentworth
Welcome to the Aged Care Digital & Technology Transformation Forum
With a renewed focus on Aged Care, especially in the light of the recent government reforms, there is more pressure than ever on Aged Care organisations to delivery effective care to elderly Australians. Technology will be a key factor in meeting the increased demand for these services and getting this implementation right will be a defining moment for many senior IT professionals.
The Aged Care Digital & Technology Transformation Forum brings together the leaders in this space to discuss the latest innovations, new technologies and transformation challenges while learning useful lessons that they can take back to accelerate and improve their own digital transformation.
By attending you will be able to hear from leading experts from around Australia, understand the growing use of AI and where this technology is going, and return to your organisation with newfound knowledge to help improve the IT delivery of your organisation.

Can you afford to miss out?
In the past few months, we've crafted a program based on previous attendees' feedback, questions and market conversations. Stay ahead in the evolving aged care sector, gain insights, share best practices, and learn from leading organisations.
YOU ASKED
WE ANSWERED
Can we have more details about how the new aged care reforms will affect our digital and technological transformation?
Our program includes sessions focused on adjusting your digital strategy to reflect the recent reforms, including a keynote from Fay Flevaras, the Chief Digital Information Officer at the Department of Health and Aged Care on this critical topic. With updates to funding and growing demand for village and home care, now is the time to attend and learn how to effectively manage technological implementation.
Can we hear real thought leader talks from industry leaders about AI, not just sales pitches?
We have confirmed a keynote talk from Google, an industry leader in AI who will talk and discuss all the latest advances in this technology and how far it will go.
This will not be a sales pitch but an update on the advances and use cases of this advancing technology.
Can industry talks feature real case studies and less theory about the benefits?
We have strongly advised all our solution partners to bring their Aged Care partners to their talk to make them more engaging and relevant to attendees.
Will the venue offer easy networking access and ease of moving around between sessions?
Our new venue is all located on one floor, and with adjoining rooms it allows complete ease of movement between sessions and breaks – giving you more time to network and meet the exhibitors.
Is it possible to have the conference venue nearer to the city centre and transport links?
We have moved the conference to a city centre location; the Sofitel in Sydney city centre. With easy transport links to the airport and all major train stations, it will be the most conveniently located conference yet.
Is it possible to finish at a time that allows for easy travel home?
We are planning to end the conference an hour earlier, meaning there is more time for people to travel home while also avoiding the worst of the rush hour crowds. This is all done without affecting the time available to network and enjoy the sessions.
Who Attends?
