Journey Beyond the Horizon: Innovation Across Space, Tourism & Technology

Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving from experimentation to real-world capability, but turning technological ambition into scalable, secure and practical outcomes remains a significant challenge.

Journey Beyond Executive General Manager, Technology, Madhumita Mazumdar will provide the enterprise perspective, sharing practical lessons from delivering AI initiatives across a complex, multi-brand tourism and attractions business. Drawing on real-world projects, she will explore data readiness, system integration, change management, security and the challenge of moving from individual pilots to scalable enterprise capability.

Drawing on her experience across the Australian space ecosystem, government, defence and advanced technology policy, Dr Catherine Grace will explore how AI and other disruptive technologies are influencing the future of space capability. She will examine the opportunities these technologies create, along with the challenges of integrating emerging technology into complex environments where governance, security and cross-sector collaboration are critical.

Together, the presentations will highlight both the similarities and differences in AI adoption across these sectors, while exploring the delivery realities that determine whether AI initiatives progress from promising ideas to practical capability.

The event will conclude with a cross-sector panel discussion featuring Catherine and Madhumita, followed by audience Q&A, offering attendees the opportunity to explore the challenges, lessons and opportunities shaping AI delivery today.
