2026 marks our 30th Anniversary Celebration. Join us in Melbourne for two amazing days of content, networking, knowledge-sharing and fun as we celebrate the people, technology and ideas transforming asset management.
MAINSTREAM acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin as the traditional owners of the greater Melbourne area. We pay our respect to the ancient and continuing cultures and connections to land and to Elders past, present, and emerging.

The Intelligent Factory: How AI is Changing Everything
Jeff Winter – Industry 4.0 Analyst & Enthusiast
AI is not a tool. It’s a structural capability that fundamentally changes decision speed, accountability, and execution. One of the world's leading voices inIndustry 4.0, Jeff Winter, introduces the Intelligent Factory: not a collection of smarter machines, but an enterprise-wide operating model where intelligence and autonomy are deliberately designed into every decision. If your AI initiatives are stalling before they deliver real value, Jeff’s MAINSTREAM Lecture explains why, and what to do about it.
