Across two days of expert-led sessions, panels, workshops and networking, delegates will gain practical insights into the forces shaping markets, sectors and portfolios. From ASX-listed companies, ETFs and global markets to resources, governance, AI, company performance and long-term returns, the Summit will help investors look beyond the headlines, test their thinking and identify where future opportunities may emerge.

Tuesday investor workshops

Join us on Tuesday, 15 September for two one-hour investor workshops.

3.00pm to 4.00pm: To be released soon.

4.00pm to 5.00pm: Using AI in your investment research, presented by Nathan Hood.

Artificial intelligence is one of the biggest technological shifts investors have seen in decades. The challenge isn’t access to AI—it’s knowing how to use it effectively. While many people are getting generic, unreliable answers, others are using AI to accelerate research, better understand businesses, identify risks, challenge their assumptions, and make more informed investment decisions.

This workshop is designed to help investors and shareholders move beyond the hype and learn practical techniques that can be applied immediately. Through real examples and live demonstrations, you’ll learn how to turn AI into a valuable investing tool rather than just an interesting novelty.

You’ll learn:

Why people are having vastly different AI experiences
What AI is actually good for—and what it’s not
Why people get poor answers from AI
The simple framework for getting better results every time
The different roles AI can play for investors and shareholders
Real-world examples of how investors are using AI today
How to manage context, memory, and ongoing conversations
Better prompts for company research and investment analysis
How to fact-check AI outputs and avoid common pitfalls
Privacy, security, and safe AI practices
A practical checklist for becoming a more effective AI user
Live demonstrations, Q&A, and discussion

Whether you’re a beginner or already experimenting with AI, you’ll leave with a clear understanding of how to use these tools to save time, improve your research process, and become a more effective investor.
