Building AI Innovation in Regional Victoria
AI in Action. Built in Bendigo.
Your monthly gathering for curious minds, innovators, and makers who want to explore how artificial intelligence can shape our work, communities, and creative futures.
About the Event
Join us for the Bendigo AI Thinkspace – a place where big-picture thinking meets hands-on experimentation.
Co-hosted by La Trobe University, Monash University, Bendigo Tech School and Ligantic, this regular third-Thursday meet-up is designed to connect people from all industries and backgrounds around AI opportunities and challenges.
About the Event
This month's Bendigo AI Thinkspace shifts the focus from AI tools to AI in practice. Two local organisations - Bendigo Telco and Curium Legal - will share how they've brought AI into their operations, what results they're seeing, and the lessons learned along the way.
Stef Cola from Ligantic will open the session with a quick industry round-up covering the biggest AI developments from the past month and what they mean locally. As always, we'll wrap up with an open Q&A.
As always, don't forget to bring along your ideas and challenges for us to discuss and showcase some innovative examples.
