E181 – Inspire 24 (Part 1) FT The Hon. Ed Husic MP, Greg Miller, Melanie Silva

Earlier this year, Innovation Bay brought more than 250 of Australia’s leading tech founders and investors together at Inspire, held at Sydney’s Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO) on May 22-23, 2024.

Set under the overarching theme ‘The Future is…’, Inspire was a platform for the exchange of revolutionary thoughts and ideas about what the future holds for the startup ecosystem across the next 5-10 years.

As he does, our co-founder and curious podcast host Ian Gardiner, set out with his roving mic to chat to some of the event’s incredible speakers and get a sense of what’s top of mind for them as they consider the evolution of the Aussie startup landscape.

During part 1, you’ll hear from:

• The Hon. Ed Husic MP, Minister for Science & Industry – on quantum computing and its long-term importance to the Australian economy.

• Greg Miller, Arena Mars (exited founder of Faethm) – opines on rapidly building, scaling and exiting his AI business that tackled the future of work, and how he’s now paying it forward.

• Melanie Silva, Google Australia and New Zealand – shares how Google is showing Australians the power of great digital tech through the Digital Future Initiative, and bringing together the world’s greatest Googlers to work with Australian partners to solve local problems using Google AI.

Listen now to get a front row seat into what Australia’s tech leading minds are passionate about and be INSPIRED.

Inspire was proudly supported by Innovation Bay’s official media partner Forbes Australia and event partners IAG Firemark Ventures, Google Cloud, the Field Jobs, and the Dylan Alcott Foundation.
