Black Swan Summit Australia 2026 - Machines, Money, Humanity.

Written by Digital Euro Association | Feb 11, 2026 10:07:38 AM

🦢 Black Swan Summit Australia will be held in Perth, Western Australia, from 23 to 25 March 2026, bringing together stakeholders from government, industry, research and technology to discuss the intersection of quantum, AI, digital assets and tokenisation, and critical infrastructure. The summit is hosted at the University of Western Australia, with sessions centered around Winthrop Hall and the University Club.

🗓️ The programme is designed around multiple formats rather than a single main stage. It includes innovation tours on 23 March, followed by two days of summit sessions on 24 to 25 March, alongside roundtables and closed door workshops intended for more detailed, implementation focused discussion. The agenda frames its 2026 focus as “Machines • Money • Humanity,” positioning the summit as a space to examine how emerging technologies are governed, scaled and made resilient in practice.

🎙️ Speakers span regulators, industry and research, including Dr Rhys Bollen (ASIC, fintech), Effie Dimitropoulos (AUDD Stablecoin), Peta Ashworth (Curtin Institute for Energy Transition) and Steve Vallas (BlockchainAPAC), alongside a wider roster covering quantum, AI, infrastructure and policy.
