The conference program will cover a range of key topics to support you in your professional development. Over the two days you will hear from a line-up of experts addressing topics such as corporate culture and risk appetite, cyber security, the regulatory landscape, governance in sport, performance and productivity.

11am–12:30pm Plenary session 2

11am A conversation on the economy

In 2016, it was predicted that the weakness in the resource sector would be largely offset by very low interest rates, rising asset prices, population growth and foreign demand. So what did happen in 2016, and what will happen in 2017? Listen to three of Australia’s leading economists discuss these issues and more.

Paul Bloxham, Chief Economist (Australia & New Zealand), Global Research, HSBC Bank Australia Limited

Sally Auld, Chief Economist and Head, AUS/NZ Fixed Income and FX Strategy, JP Morgan

Su-Lin Ong, Managing Director, Chief Economist & Head of Australian Research, RBC Capital Markets

11:45am Creating a safe harbour: Beyond the business judgment rule

Do the current insolvent trading provisions promote harsh outcomes? Will the proposed safe harbour provisions (that would allow directors to trade out of financial difficulties) create inappropriate incentives? Or, will these proposed provisions focus directors on the interests of the company, rather than their own? And should a due diligence defence for forward looking statements and risk oriented disclosures be put in place? This session explores these questions and more in this ongoing, and sometimes polarising, debate.

1:30pm In the midst of a revolution: The Internet of Things

Whether revolution or evolution, the ‘Internet of Things’ is changing the world as we know it. Where everyday objects have network connectivity, expect digital automation, ‘big data’, robotics and disruptive technologies. All sectors will be impacted — health, retail, energy, agriculture, transport and logistics. Experts predict that ten years from now, many of our businesses will look nothing like they do today. This session explores the incredible opportunities and risks these revolutionary developments may bring.

Dr Mike Briers AO, Co-founder and CEO, Knowledge Economy Institute

2:15pm Innovation in action Innovation is important to every sector of the economy — it keeps us competitive, creates jobs, enhances our economic development and maintains our Australian standard of living. With the world rapidly changing around us, there has never been a better time to innovate — but how do we translate the rhetoric into action? Top executives of leading Australian companies share their experiences of implementing successful innovations in the market place.

John Price, Commissioner, Australian Securities and Investments Commission

Peter Wilson AM, Chairman, The Australian Human Resources Institute

4:15pm The fraud paradox Some major frauds have resulted in huge financial losses and reputational disgrace. We also know that simple internal controls and preventative strategies can significantly reduce the risk of fraud. So why don’t more companies take preventative action? This session looks at this fraud paradox by examining companies that have successfully prevented fraud from occurring.

11:20am The pursuit of productivity

Some people consider governance to be a web of red-tape that’s focused more on meeting regulatory deadlines than achieving performance targets. But we all know that great performance can be achieved when key decision makers have the ‘peace of mind’ that sound process brings. In this interactive session we talk to a panel of governance professionals from across the corporate landscape in regard to both the performance and compliance sides of the governance coin.

3:40pm Much more than a game: The complex art of governing sport

These days sport is much more than a game, with huge money at stake for clubs, sponsors and individual athletes. While sport is always in the headlines, and often for the right reasons, a number of recent high profile incidents have shifted our attention to the governance of sport. It’s easy to see how the joy of victory on the field can be so quickly quashed by any number of controversies off the field. This session discusses how the complex world of sport can be governed so there are more winners both on and off the field.

A disaster has happened to your company overnight. It is 9:00 AM and the media is on your doorstep. What do you say? Who do you call? How could you have planned for this?

More than ever, businesses need to be prepared for worst case scenarios — fast moving events that can cause serious disruption or even bring a business to its knees. In this workshop, the panel of KPMG subject matter experts will draw on their unique backgrounds and experiences to examine a range of worst case scenarios and help you to predict, plan for, and appropriately react to extreme events, including: ‘viral’ incidents, natural disasters; industrial disputes; and cyber-crime.
