Supporting tech innovation as an enabler within Australian Healthcare & Government Sectors

We invite technology innovators to learn about our initiatives within these sectors that include:

Technology as an enabler in healthcare

Drive conversations in healthcare

We continue to gather a mix of forward thinkers from different skill sets and backgrounds together to have meaningful conversations on what needs to be done when it comes to leveraging technology for better patient outcomes. Last year we worked with our partner Queensland AI Hub to build a forum to discuss AI in Healthcare featuring Queensland University, Metro South Health, Harrison.ai and Deloitte. In 2022 we will continue to drive similar conversations with a variety of stakeholders.

A conduit between Healthcare stakeholders

We are currently engaging with a number of associations, government representatives, regulators, academia, healthtech and patient representatives to collaborate and navigate the complexity of the healthcare sector. Reach out to me to be part of it, 2022 will the year of ‘doers’.

Leverage research to propel better patient outcomes in Healthcare through tech

We will continue to undertake healthcare sector research on behalf of technology leaders to create insightful and educational content on how technology can be leveraged to deliver better patient outcomes. The results of such studies are distributed to our network of associations to reach the users of tech within healthcare settings.

Technology as an enabler in government

Grow diversity within NSW government’s tech supplier network.

Via #TechDiversty foundation we teamed up with Cultural Infusion and approached NSW Government to implement a data driven platform called Diversity Atlas across all strategic partners that provide technology services to the state Government, to understand tech workforce diversity. This is an excellent opportunity for our technology clients to align with a Government procurement process that puts diversity and inclusion as a priority. Reach out to me to find out more.

Data driven insights to help tech innovators sell and market to Government

Provide technology innovators with access to data insights that will enable better ‘matchmaking’ between tech innovation and Government request for tender (RFTs).  Organisations can throw a lot of resource at RFTs with little insights. These data insights help organisations to uncover partnerships for RFT success.  Our clients use this service for competitor insights and plan future resource allocation to submit upcoming RFTs.

Support and attract more talent to the tech sector

Continue to volunteer our time to lead not for profit #TechDiversity foundation, we recently secured a partnership with the Tech Council of Australia and their recently launched initiative; the Digital Employment Forum (DEF). We will support and educate their members so they can attract and retain a diverse and inclusive workforce.

We’ve advised some amazing women-led businesses from Sri-Lanka with the Export Council of Australia and from Canada to New Zealand with SheEO, where we participated in virtual trade events.

We are actively mentoring overseas organisations with setting up and growing their market presence in Australia as part of The International Growth Programme lead by our UK partner TechNation

“This is an exciting time for AI driven Healthcare, according to research company Ecosystm, as vaccine distribution and tracking become crucial, healthcare organisations will opt for a more collaborative, AI driven supply chain. This is just one key indicator that there is a need now more than ever for collaborative opportunities such as the AI Healthcare Forum 2021"

AI in Healthcare is now truly at the forefront during this COVID-19 era. However, over the past few years it is champions like Queensland AI Hub and Best Case Scenario who have facilitated and encouraged the adoption of AI technologies within the Australian Healthcare sector.

TechDiversity Foundation appoints new management

The TechDiversity Foundation is thrilled to announce that event management agency, Best Case Scenario will take over the management of the TechDiversity Awards and operation of the TechDiversity Foundation.

The TechDiversity Team believe Luli and Best Case Scenario are the obvious choice – they are committed to diversity in the tech sector, possess an unwavering desire to make a difference and facilitate some of the largest tech events in the country.

After 5 years of running the #TechDiversity Awards we recognise greater full time effort is required to take the #TechDiversity Awards to a national stage and to truly celebrate our TechDiversity champions. We couldn’t imagine TechDiversity being in better hands.

“Diversity for the sake of diversity doesn’t work”

Luli Adeyemo, Managing Director of BCS views diversity as a by-product for businesses who put great effort into maximising business success. Luli comments, “Inclusive organisations do not view diversity as just policy, but acknowledge the core value it can bring to organisations – diversity for the sake of diversity doesn’t work. I am extremely excited and grateful that the TechDiversity team approached me to take over the operation of the TechDiversity Foundation and management of the TechDiversity Awards. It’s exhilarating to be part of something that showcases and celebrates the true business value that diversity and inclusivity brings to an organisation”.

“Luli’s passion for inclusivity in business comes from real life experiences. The Best Case Scenario team were appointed to make Government events digitally inclusive. Since then, Luli has been campaigning to make sure that diversity and inclusion is front and centre for organisations hosting events, resulting in a better delegate experience, increasing delegate attendance and creating a more inclusive event."

It is because of these beliefs that the TechDiversity Foundation approached Luli at the beginning of 2020. Luli will continue the fantastic work of the TechDiversity founders and inspire tech-based organisations to implement long-lasting change around diversity, based on the examples set by others. The TechDiversity team and committee will also continue to have strategic input and act as an advisory to Luli and her team.

Luli wants to eliminate any thoughts that inclusivity and diversity is just a tick on an organisation’s corporate social responsibility policy and the TechDiversity Awards 2020 program will be built on the business value diversity and inclusion bring to an organisation.

To support our flagship event, we will be running a series of thought-provoking webinars throughout the year, providing our community and supporting organisations with access to relevant information and resources. This will provide participants the opportunity to engage with speakers, each other and organisations; the opportunity to align their brand and be seen as true leaders in this field.

“We all agreed at TechDiversity that Luli and her team were a perfect fit - they have supported other non-profit awards ceremonies such as the AIIA’s iAwards which celebrates technology innovation among Government, universities, students and corporates.”

The first webinar in a series of 4 will tackle ” Why should diversity be top of your recovery strategy?” Smart leaders are currently looking very frankly at their future strategies and considering where their organisation is going to be in the new norm. The priority for leaders is identifying how innovation can spark new growth opportunities. Research supports that diverse companies are better able to win top talent, orient themselves well with their customers and improve decision making.

Microsoft’s Artificial Intelligence 3rd Party Events

The Best Case Scenario event management team are delighted to be part of Microsoft’s goal of successfully demonstrating the practical use of AI today. Microsoft will demonstrate how they are taking an industry-leading approach to responsible and ethical AI. Our job is to ensure that they get the most out of their sponsorship presence at three AI 3rd party events.

The Planning

The team really enjoyed taking part in the journey of providing input for the build and visuals for Microsoft’s exhibitor stand, it is very innovative, creative and interactive with the aim of taking delegates from a general understanding of AI to getting hands on with their tools. Our expert events team started their event management support in Sydney  on September 10th at IoT Impact, a two-day learning campus for Australian business executives. The Best Case Scenario Event Management team will then work with Microsoft on the AI & Machine Learning Summit, September 11-13. It doesn’t stop there, the third event where Microsoft will demonstrate their leadership in AI is at AI Digital Summit Victoria (October 18th).

Delegates will experience their very own perfect juice powered by Microsoft Azure.  The delegate stands in front of a screen that has a webcam behind it, they are shown three images to evoke a reaction – the AI platform matches the attendee reaction to the images to a juice.

"It’s an event series like this that the team at Best Case Scenario excel at, their ability to move onto the next event seamlessly and get the most out of sponsorship investment through efficiencies and adaptability is of real benefit to our client's ROI".

Government summits where thought leaders gather to create change is where our team love to be.  We have helped shape the agenda with Dr Ian Oppermann, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Data Scientist | Data Analytics Centre, who also hosts a panel with guests from Industry, Academia and Government to discuss the theme, ‘Digital from the Outside’.

Best Case Scenario director Luli Adeyemo worked with Ian Oppermann in structuring the program for the AIIA NSW Navigating Digital Government Summit. Their aim was to invite speakers and focus on topics that would result in AIIA members and summit delegates having fruitful conversations around how emerging technologies may shape Government thinking, policy and service delivery approaches.  The event has attracted an audience of 100+ Executives from the ICT Sector, Government Departments and Agencies.

As program director Luli works with the The AIIA NSW Government Special Interest Group (SIG) a key group for:

  • Policy innovation
  • Engagement with NSW Government DFSI and agencies
  • Innovation and market development
