We are delighted to be a Gold Partner of Cloud & Infrastructure Melbourne 2026, where we'll be joining technology leaders in Melbourne to explore how cloud, infrastructure, and AI are reshaping the way organisations operate, govern, and grow.

As cloud estates become more complex, leaders need practical ways to reduce cost, strengthen control, and accelerate modernisation. This event brings together senior decision makers to share ideas, challenge assumptions, and explore what works in practice.

Speaking Session

The next wave of optimisation: FinOps, platform engineering and agentic operations

Leigh Stillard - Director, Cloud, CGI Australia

Cloud waste in 2026 does not sit in one place. It appears in proprietary database licensing, Kubernetes overprovisioning, and rising AI inference demand. In this session, Leigh will explore how leading organisations are using agentic methods to identify and reduce waste continuously.

He will also outline a practical operating model for Agent FinOps, bringing together platform engineering, FinOps, and AI-driven operations to improve governance, reduce technical debt, and accelerate migration away from proprietary stacks.
