As part of a launch for the AWISE 2020 Innovation Summit, Victor lead the panel and broader community on a stimulating and uplifting look at how we can all spring into the new season, embrace optimism, and start innovating for a better future.
Now for us to seek through Optimism and Innovation we can Reflect, Adapt, and Thrive post COVID-19.

About AWISE
AWISE (Albury-Wodonga Innovation Summit & EXPO) is an annual event hosted from Wodonga in North East Victoria to explore, celebrate, and learn about
advancements in Innovation locally, nationally, and globally. In previous years we have run a full day event bringing together industry, business, and education institutions; however, due to the present lock downs and social distancing, we are planning to run the program over a series of webinars and workshops with a hybrid delivery model allowing where practical for face to face attendance but encouraging online attendance.
In 2020, through the series of webinars and workshops we plan to explore Innovation:
- What should you be thinking about? (Strategic Innovation),
- How could you be changing? (Technical Innovation), and
- How would you actually do it? (Operational Innovation)
We’ll be running one session each week from mid-October through to mid-December. The program will include the following:
- Connecting with your future customers
- Why digital matters more than ever for business
- Microlearning and the Modern Workplace
- Emerging Uses of AI in Business
- Cyber Security for Business
- The future of Robots in the Workplace
- Introduction to 5G Technology for Business
- Emerging opportunities in IoT
- Running a Business in the Cloud
- Leveraging Automation in your Business
