AI investment across Asia/Pacific is accelerating rapidly, with IDC forecasting $175 billion in AI and GenAI spending by 2028, as organisations move from pilots to enterprise-scale deployment. For Australian organisations, the next phase of AI adoption is focused on speed, trust, and operational scale. 

At the same time, by 2026, 65% of APEJ organisations will adopt composite AI, combining generative, predictive, prescriptive, and agentic AI to improve reliability and explainability; particularly in regulated industries. 

Scaling AI also depends on infrastructure and data readiness. IDC forecasts that organisations that fail to prioritise high-quality, AI-ready data will experience a 20% productivity loss when scaling generative and agentic AI solutions. As a result, Australian enterprises are increaasingly investing in hybrid and multicloud platforms, secure data foundations, and governance frameworks to operationalise AI at scale. 

This invitation-only executive roundtable brings together Australian CIOs and senior IT leaders to explore how AI can be industrialised across the enterprise, delivering measurable value while managing risk and compliance.
