Sydney is rapidly emerging as the top choice for Artificial Intelligence (AI) events, leveraging its robust financial capital, world class human talent, and innovative infrastructure.
Backed by New South Wales (NSW) Government’s commitment to fostering innovation and productivity, its leading universities, dynamic startup ecosystem, and key industry players, Sydney boasts a vibrant AI landscape as well as International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney) that serves as the epicentre where Human Intelligence (HI) and AI converge through events.
NSW Government Minister for Planning and Public Spaces, Paul Scully said, “As a hub of innovation, Sydney has a rich network of tech companies, leading universities, and ambitious entrepreneurs working at the cutting edge of artificial intelligence. So, it only makes sense that we continue to host the best and brightest in this sector at the ICC Sydney. AI has enormous potential to boost productivity across all sectors; we’re already adopting it across the planning space. With ICC Sydney at the nexus where brilliant minds and emerging technologies meet, Sydney is fast becoming the destination where the future of AI is being imagined.”
Business Events Sydney, Chief Executive Officer, Amanda Lampe said: “Our global clients recognise the rapid growth of Sydney’s AI sector over the last decade, making it Australia’s hub of AI, with almost half of the country’s share of AI companies concentrated here.
“The Tech Central precinct running through to the ICC Sydney and beyond is part of a rapidly growing innovation corridor that’s buzzing with creative and engaged industry specialists and thought leaders. It’s a unique environment for international delegates to connect, collaborate and exchange ideas that will change the future of our world,” Lampe said.
University of Technology Sydney, Director of Entrepreneurship, Murray Hurps said: “The next generation of talent emerging from Sydney, and particularly from UTS, is already building the future with AI. We’re seeing students and early-stage founders not just exploring the potential of artificial intelligence, but actively applying it to create new businesses, solve real-world problems, and contribute to industries across the board. This wave of innovation is significantly enhancing both the cultural and business capital of our city. Sydney isn’t just participating in the AI revolution, we’re helping to lead it, one startup at a time – and ICC Sydney is an unparalleled platform to connect people in this space.”
