Agentic AI is no longer a lab experiment - it’s becoming a new operational layer in companies. The latest agent platforms are designed to plug into real workflows (risk, fraud, compliance, customer service, operations) & act with increasing autonomy. That’s why executives & markets are paying attention - autonomous agents can reshape productivity, cost structures, revenue models & even the definition of “the workforce.”

But scale without control is a liability. When agents act at machine speed, across interconnected systems, small design choices can create big consequences - from conduct & compliance failures to cyber exposure, customer harm or systemic risks. This session focuses on what it takes to deploy agentic AI responsibly & competitively in practice.

Quantum computing is driving a security transition—not because the “quantum apocalypse is tomorrow,” but because long-lived data and systems in finance, government identity, healthcare, defence, energy networks and communications can be compromised today through “harvest now, decrypt later.” The systemic risk is straightforward: if we wait until the last minute, migration becomes chaotic, expensive, and operationally disruptive while compromising critical systems.

This is a how-to roundtable for moving from PQC awareness to execution. Banks, big tech, government, security agencies and critical infrastructure operators will align on practical steps: cryptographic inventory, crypto-agility, standards alignment, vendor and supply-chain readiness, procurement language, testing, and staged migration—so organisations can upgrade without breaking interoperability or service continuity.

Outcomes: Insights from discussions will contribute towards GFTN's work on a practical Quantum-Safe Migration Starter Pack with priority systems list, decision points, recommended timelines and a minimum target state for crypto-agility plus a shortlist of “next-wave” opportunities worth piloting.

Join us for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes tour of Perth's world-class supercomputing facilities. This is a rare opportunity to see the sheer power of advanced computation firsthand and understand its transformative potential. Experience the technology driving today's breakthroughs across AI, climate modelling, quantum computing, and blockchain.
