Building Trust in AI: The Australian National AI Plan – A Path Forward for Boards and Executives
45-minute webinar (FREE to attend)
15 April 2026 12.30 pm AEST
Join us for a concise executive overview of Australia’s National AI Plan (released December 2025).
We will explore the three core pillars (Capturing Opportunities, Spreading the Benefits, Keeping Australians Safe) and practical steps for organisations to build trusted, responsible AI governance.
You should attend if you are a Board member, C-suite leader, or governance professional
Theme Highlights:
No new standalone AI Act — emphasis on organisational accountability and voluntary guardrails
Deep dive into Pragmatic Guardrails for AI Governance (8 domains), strongly influenced by the 2024 Proposals Paper, AI Ethics Principles, and international standards
Special focus on Risk Management (Domain 1) for board directors
Strategic actions, governance expectations, and how to turn the National AI Plan into competitive advantage
MES 2: Understanding CRQ is easy; doing it is rare and hard — but essential.
Why vague risk heatmaps fail boards and how expressing top cyber risks in clear financial (dollar) terms drives real prioritisation, measurement, and risk reduction. Turns security from a cost sink into a defensible business enabler.
Full-day Masterclass (9:00 am – 4:00 pm) (Sydney)
You should attend if you are a Board member, C-suite leader, or risk or governance professional.
MES 3: Defensible Security in the AI Era: Architecture, Resilience, and Emerging Risks – Operationalising
Building modern, AI-aware cyber resilience. Moves beyond traditional perimeter defences to layered, adaptive, behaviour-driven architectures that incorporate zero-trust, predictive AI defences, continuous validation, and secure AI lifecycle management.
Full-day Masterclass (9:00 am – 4:00 pm)
Theme Highlights:
Architectural blueprints for resilience in the AI era
Managing emerging high-impact risks (autonomous subversion, ecosystem dependencies, adaptive threats)
Operationalising secure AI adoption while maintaining defensible security postures
You should attend if you are a Security architect, CISO, or in a team building next-generation resilience.
