Keynote and Chill: An Australian-first conference initiative

Hannover Fairs Australia, organisers of CeBIT Australia will live stream this year’s keynote conference sessions to anyone with access to the Internet.

Harvey Stockbridge, Managing Director at Hannover Fairs Australia, said the incorporation of live streaming was a result of the show’s new format for 2016.

“This year’s event is all about shaping the business technology landscape and live streaming goes hand in hand with that notion. Technology and business leaders have come to expect consumer-grade capabilities of streaming video through their experiences with YouTube and Netflix; simple, easy-to-access and a seamless viewing experience whether they’re in a boardroom or the back of a taxi.

“Last year we achieved enormous reach, over 6 million, via the event’s social media channels. This year, with the incorporation of our non-geotargeted (meaning anyone, anywhere with an internet connection can view this footage) live streaming capabilities, we expect to blow this number out of the water.

The keynote sessions that will be available to watch online include:

  • The Hon. Mike Baird MP – Premier of New South Wales – opening ministerial presentation
  • Clover Moore – Lord Mayor of Sydney – opening ministerial presentation
  • Kathryn Parsons – Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Decoded – The Future is being Written in Lines of Code
  • Dr Bernard S. Meyerson – Chief Innovation Officer at IBM – The Cognitive Era; AI (Accessible Intelligence) Comes Of Age
  • Scott Anthony – Managing Partner at Innosight – Solving the Transformation Equation – Harnessing transformation and disruption for strategic innovation
  • Scott Monty – ex-head of social media (Global Digital and Multimedia Communications Manager) at Ford Motor Company – Fulfilling the Promise of Digital: How humanizing your business drives attention and trust
  • Ross Dawson – Australian entrepreneur, keynote speaker, strategy advisor, and bestselling author – Platform Strategy – The changing structure of value creation
  • Shara Evans – cutting edge technology futurist, commentator, strategy advisor and thought leader – CyberCrime: From SciFi to boardroom threat – Where the challenges lie in the digital future!
