What stayed with us from the day

Three themes from the panel and the floor that will shape how Australian enterprises prepare data for AI.

Prioritise your data before you
scale AI

Not everything can be stored, governed or made available forever. Decide what to retain, what to discard and where to invest, weighing cost, risk and accessibility.

Enforce human oversight in real time



As agentic AI becomes more autonomous, oversight has to sit inside the controls that run alongside it, not only in policy documents.

Treat sovereignty as strategy, not just compliance

Data residency, regulation and model choice shape ownership, risk and long-term architecture, and they depend on access to the infrastructure capacity underneath.
