Danny values the mix of grounded research, executive networking, and solution-focused vendor sessions at ADAPT’s events.
3 MIN Danny Walsh Business & Technology Services Director George Weston Foods

Danny Walsh, CIO at George Weston Foods, explains why he continues to attend ADAPT’s Edge events.

The presentations deliver data-driven insights grounded in the Australian and New Zealand market, giving him practical ideas to take back to his team.

The peer networking sessions, whether in structured roundtables or informal one-to-one conversations, help him validate common challenges and discover new approaches shared across industries.

Danny also finds the vendor conversations highly useful, with ADAPT’s matching process creating relevant, solution-focused discussions.

These meetings have sparked follow-up opportunities, from exploring new vendors to uncovering services with existing partners.

"I always come away from these events with something practical that I can go away and do or start a different conversation around."
