“This is a time of incredible technical change that presents unprecedented opportunities for positive change, but which also presents huge challenges,” said Influencing CEO Phil Sim. “Journalists and analysts have such an important role in presenting the myriad of issues surrounding these changes, and TechLeaders offers them the chance to step back from the day-to-day reporting grind and look at the bigger picture and build new connections and sources.”
 

As well as our keynote speakers, presenters will include leaders from technology vendors who will present their insights into key market changes and issues. Limited sponsored speaking slots are still available, and interested companies should contact Mike Woodcock at mike@mediaconnect.com.au for more information.
