Brazil Week 2026 | Innovation & Technology Forum – Brisbane
Australia, Brazil and the Global AI Race
About this Event
AI, DATA & DIGITAL SOVEREIGNTY
Australia, Brazil and the Global AI Race
Artificial Intelligence is becoming much more than a technology conversation. It is reshaping organisations, economies and the way countries think about data, innovation and sovereignty.
As part of Brazil Week 2026, this special Business Day will bring together leaders from technology, AI, data and academia to explore how Australia and Brazil can position themselves in the global AI race.
The conversation will explore data sovereignty, trusted AI, governance, national capability and the opportunities ahead, while asking an increasingly important question:
As AI becomes critical to our economies and organisations, who controls the data, technology and intelligence behind it?
