These activities explore the profound changes required of the Australian electricity system to realise a Net Zero Australia. This outcome demands significant collaboration between the energy and ICT sectors.

The Australia 4.0 Summit is intended to include diverse perspectives, across key stakeholders, exploring the opportunities for the Australian ICT sector to contribute to the transition to Net Zero of the Australian electricity system.]]> https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/426/Summit-Rondel-455x445_transparent.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2023-a40-summit/ 2023-10-09 10:21:00 423 36 Ada Lovelace Day honours all the innovative women in STEM, commemorating their ingenuity that has changed the course of history.

Proudly sponsored by the Pearcey Foundation.

The Monash University Faculty of IT is exploring the role of Australian women in early digital computing – and the opportunities in the future. Join us for insightful speeches, a thought-provoking panel discussion and networking over a light lunch in our celebration ‘Australian women in IT yesterday, today and tomorrow’ which will be opened by Professor Ann Nicholson, the first female Dean of our faculty. It will then venture into the life of Ada Lovelace and how women can carry on her legacy of impact today and tomorrow.]]> https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/423/Ada-Lovelace-1463x2294_transparent.png url https://www.monash.edu/it/events/2023/ada-lovelace-day 2023-10-04 05:25:00 419 20 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/419/session-6.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/a40-discussions-2023/ 2023-06-27 00:19:00 418 20 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/418/session-5.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/a40-discussions-2023/ 2023-06-27 00:17:00 417 20 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/417/session-4.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/a40-discussions-2023/ 2023-06-27 00:16:00 416 20 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/416/session-3.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/a40-discussions-2023/ 2023-06-27 00:14:00 415 20 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/415/session-2.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/a40-discussions-2023/ 2023-06-26 05:27:00 412 20 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/412/Renewable-Energy-1920x1280.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/a40-discussions-2023/ 2023-06-20 11:26:00 411 84 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/411/White-Paper-Cover-Page-189x268.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/initiatives/australia-40/ 2023-06-16 07:16:00 387 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/387/graeme-philipson.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/blog/2022/opening-of-graeme-philipson-library/ 2022-06-03 04:00:00 64 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/64/2022-summit-riding-the-digital-wave.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2022-riding-the-digital-wave-summit/ 2022-02-23 22:00:00 49 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/49/2021-roundtable-the-future-of-work.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2021-the-future-of-work-roundtable/ 2021-08-25 08:00:00 382 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/382/2019-csirac-70th-anniversary.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2019-csirac-70th-anniversary/ 2019-11-14 02:00:00 381 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/381/2019-dr-trevor-pearcey-centenary.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2019-dr-trevor-pearcey-centenary/ 2019-03-05 04:00:00 232 36 Celebrating the Past; Informing the Present; Inspiring the Future.]]> https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/232/Ballarat.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2018-ballarat-heritage-event/ 2018-09-07 13:30:00 233 36 Current ICT Heritage Collections - Where they are, what they are and plans for the future?]]> https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/233/monash-digital-evolution-display.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2018-pearcey-day-heritage-panel/ 2018-08-28 11:00:00 332 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/332/Peter-Thorne-60th-anniversary.png page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2016-60-years-of-computing-in-victoria/ 2016-06-14 07:48:00 334 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/334/2012-Event-CSIRO-Execs-Visit-CSIRAC.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2012-csiro-ict-executives-visit-csirac/ 2012-01-23 08:15:00 335 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/335/CSIRAC60-Semkiw-Ryan-Sullivan-Spencer.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2009-csirac-60th-anniversary/ 2009-11-18 07:56:00 234 36 https://www.pearcey.org.au/media/website_posts/234/ron-bowles-csirac-console-late-1950s.jpg page https://www.pearcey.org.au/events/special-events/2003-pearcey-to-the-pc-history-conference/ 2003-09-01 13:15:00
