This is Not Your Typical AI Event
Most AI events sell you the dream. This one gives you the plan. Aetheron and Adelaide Connected have teamed up to bring SA's business leaders a hands-on masterclass in AI strategy; no fluff, no sales pitch, just a clear path forward for your organisation.
Foundations First. Strategy Before the Next Spend.
Nearly every Australian CEO says AI is critical to their strategy, yet very few have built the foundations to deliver on it. The gap isn't the technology. It's the strategy underneath it. This masterclass gives you a structured approach that starts with your business goals and readiness, so the use cases you invest in produce measurable results.
Your Business, Not a Case Study
You won't sit through hypothetical scenarios. You'll work through a guided discovery process using Aetheron's Blueprint platform and leave with AI opportunities mapped to your actual role and challenges.
Built for Decision-Makers, Not Developers
Healthcare, engineering, professional services, government, hospitality. If you make decisions about how your organisation operates, this session is for you. No technical background required.
Leave Knowing Exactly Where to Invest
Not notes. Not inspiration. A personalised Opportunity Report with your AI Readiness Score and your top use cases ranked by impact and feasibility, plus a week of Blueprint access after the session to keep refining your strategy with your team. The foundation for an AI strategy your board will take seriously.

Blueprint generates a personalised report identifying your top 4-5 AI opportunities, ranked by impact and feasibility. This is yours to keep.
Pressure-Test Your Top Use Cases
Shaun and the Aetheron team facilitate a live strategy workshop where we evaluate and prioritise the most promising use cases from the room.
Go Deep on Implementation
The highest-priority use cases from the workshop get expanded into real detail. What it takes to build, cost, timelines, and expected ROI. This is where strategy becomes a plan.
Leave Knowing Exactly Where to Invest Next
Walk out with your Readiness Score and your ranked Opportunity Report, having seen through a live worked example what implementation really takes. Your Blueprint access continues for a week after the session, so the work doesn't stop when the morning does.
Who Should Be in the Room
Whether you're a CEO, operations lead, or one of the 2,000+ professionals across Adelaide Connected's network of industry leaders, this session was designed with you in mind.
CEOs & Managing Directors
You're being asked about your AI strategy by boards, investors, and competitors. Leave with one you can actually present.
Heads of Operations
You see the inefficiencies every day. This session shows you exactly which ones AI can fix, with costs and timelines attached.
Transformation & Innovation Leads
Stop building roadmaps from scratch. Blueprint generates one based on your organisation's real data, not a template.
Department Heads & Senior Managers
Your team is already using AI informally. Get ahead of it with a structured plan that turns experimentation into results.
Board Members & Advisors
You need to ask the right questions about AI investment. This gives you the framework to evaluate what's real and what's hype.
IT & Technology Leaders
You understand the tech. This session gives you the business case and prioritisation framework to get leadership buy-in.

Edward Palmer
Professor of Educational Technologies
Topic: AI GovernanceEthical AI is not about how to use AI tools, it's about understanding the ethical, governance and decision-making implications of AI. How will your use of AI reflect your credentials as a progressive and responsible business? In this session Professor Edward Palmer will focus on responsible AI and discuss the Responsible AI Index and its link to ethical decision-making.
Participants will explore the ethical risks, responsibilities and public trust considerations, and will be introduced to the Responsible AI Index, its construction and current findings, and its relevance to your workplace.
Grounded in current research and real-world examples, this session is designed for professionals working in policy, learning & development, workforce capability, ICT, and governance, as well as anyone involved in shaping how AI is used, not just deploying it.
