World Business Forum Sydney


The trends transforming financial services are reshaping every sector. AI, disruption, and shifting competitive dynamics are forcing leaders to rethink how they compete. At the World Business Forum Sydney, 1,500+ senior executives will hear from nine global thinkers on what these changes mean for business. 

A few speakers particularly relevant to our community:

  • Anna Baird — former Chief Customer Officer for Google Cloud and founder of Actual Intelligence (Ai°) Leadership, on embedding "actual intelligence" into people and AI strategy. Directly applicable if your team is trying to turn organisational data into real AI adoption, not just AI hype.

  • Scott D. Anthony — disruption expert from Tuck School of Business. If you're trying to out-manoeuvre incumbents, this is the closest thing to a playbook.

  • Chris Barton — founder of Shazam, on building and scaling an innovative product from zero to acquisition.

Rounding out the program: Terry Gutierrez on Self-Management and Seth Godin on strategy — both offer frameworks that map well onto fast-growing teams.

Why it's worth the time:

  • Step outside the Fintech echo chamber and hear how AI, disruption and leadership are playing out across banking, retail, sport and more.

  • Network with 1,500+ senior leaders, including banking and finance execs.

  • Ticket includes 12 months of on-demand access to WOBI's global forum content and leadership platform — not just a two-day event.
