Cardinia Business Breakfast: A Morning of Insight and Inspiration

Wednesday morning’s Cardinia Business Breakfast was a resounding success, bringing together over 130 local businesspeople for a morning of connection, collaboration, and forward-thinking discussions. The event, held at the Cardinia Cultural Centre, was highlighted by an engaging keynote presentation from renowned Australian futurist, author, and technologist, Steve Sammartino.

Steve’s insights into the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence were not only thought-provoking but also incredibly relevant to the challenges and opportunities facing our local business community. His ability to break down complex concepts into engaging, relatable ideas made the morning both accessible and inspiring. As Steve aptly put it, “If you can talk, you can do it – AI finally speaks our language.” This sentiment resonated deeply with attendees, emphasising the transformative potential of AI in everyday business operations.

The breakfast provided a fantastic opportunity for attendees to connect, share insights, and discuss future collaborations. The event featured a lively Q&A session with Steve, allowing participants to delve deeper into the practical applications of AI and explore how these technologies can be harnessed to drive innovation and growth within their own businesses.

Networking opportunities were abundant, with local businesspeople mingling and exchanging ideas over a delicious breakfast catered by the Cardinia Cultural Centre. The atmosphere was one of enthusiasm and optimism, as attendees left with new connections and a renewed sense of purpose.

Cardinia Mayor Jack Kowarzik expressed his gratitude, stating, “A big thank you to all who took time out of their morning to attend the Cardinia Business Breakfast. Your participation and engagement made the event truly special. We look forward to continuing these important conversations and fostering a collaborative spirit within our business community.”
