Virtual Reality is being used to train employees in dangerous or risky environments - like pilots training on simulators and surgeons practicing complex procedures, but it is also being used to reduce the training demands on organisations for mechanical roles. Immersive learning at its most powerful!

Steven Worrall (Managing Director at Microsoft Australia) opened the day talking about business transformation because in 2017, Australia slipped four rankings in the World Competitiveness Rankings.

Cyber security breaches are clearly in everyone’s awareness and we are all quickly realising that the responsibility sits with the relevant government, board & management. To simply leave it at the IT level, is to court disaster! This isn’t just about protecting your data, it’s about protecting your organisation's continuity.

In the last 12 months, the rate of cyber attacks (particularly from ransomware) has continued to increase with some companies being attacked for the second or third time. The question for small businesses is no longer what they are going to do if they get attacked, but what they are going to do when it happens.
