Join us for the Perth AI Innovators Meetup in May as we explore how to build and scale AI-powered innovation labs within organizations. This event will provide you with practical insights into creating environments where AI can thrive.

AI innovation labs are at the heart of many successful digital transformation strategies. These dedicated spaces enable teams to experiment, prototype, and deploy AI-driven solutions that solve real-world problems and drive competitive advantage.

Whether you're a technical expert, a business leader, an academic, or a student interested in artificial intelligence. As a senior AI executive within a global consultancy of 50,000 professionals, Joshua J. Morley leads an international team of 1,500 experts across technology, transformation, and innovation. Supported by innovation labs spanning more than a dozen countries, Joshua will delve into the critical focus areas that extend beyond technology itself, emphasising strategic alignment, cultural transformation, and training and upskilling.

Josh will discuss his AI Maturity tool, which he has been developing to help organisations assess how effectively humans and AI systems collaborate. Unlike traditional AI maturity models that focus on technology adoption, this assessment explicitly measures the quality and effectiveness of collaboration between human and AI systems in the workplace.

This meetup is a fantastic opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, share ideas, and spark collaborations.
