Editor's Note

Thank you to everyone who joined us on Hamilton Island last week for Pipeline 2026. I hope it was enjoyable, sparked useful conversations and re-energised you.

It was great to see attendees networking by the beach, on the golf course and around the island, and a big thank you to our sponsors who made it possible.

Tech partners, I’m now looking forward to learning which of you truly made an impact for your customers in the last 12 months, and which of your leaders did the same, when I see your nominations in our Impact Awards and announce the winners at our Winter Ball in Sydney on August 13. We've extended the deadline for nominations till May 26: Read more.
