Join us for a high-level discussion on the convergence of quantum applications, cybersecurity, and space industries.
Join us for a high-level discussion on the convergence of three of the most critical and rapidly evolving sectors: quantum applications, cybersecurity, and space industries. This panel will bring together key leaders to explore the unprecedented opportunities and strategic challenges that lie at their intersection, with a specific focus on Canberra's unique role and advantages in shaping Australia's advanced technology landscape.
Panelists
- LTGEN Susan Coyle AM, CSC, DSM, Chief of Joint Capability, Defence Australia.
- Petra Andrén, CEO of Quantum Australia.
- Arvind Ramana, Director of Space Programs, Australian Space Agency.
The discussion will include topics such as:
- Market Opportunities: Identifying where the next wave of innovation and investment will emerge, from secure satellite communication to quantum-enhanced sensing and navigation. The panel will highlight how Canberra's high concentration of federal government agencies, national security organizations, and a highly skilled, security-cleared workforce creates a prime environment for developing and commercializing these technologies.
- National security and sovereignty: How a country like Australia can leverage its domestic capabilities and international partnerships to protect its sensitive data and ensure its security, while playing a significant role in a global industry.
- Workforce of the Future: Addressing the talent gap and discussing the skills and collaboration models required to build a workforce capable of operating at the nexus of these complex fields. Canberra's robust ecosystem of world-class universities and research institutions provides a crucial pipeline of talent and research essential for this growth.
Following the panel, attendees will have a valuable opportunity to network and forge new partnerships with professionals across the defence, space, and technology communities. Don't miss this chance to gain a deeper understanding of the forces shaping our future and to connect with the innovators at the forefront of this transformation.
