3:25 Andrew Dome Chief Digital Information Officer Uniting

“There’s always a gold nugget somewhere, and more importantly, how can you apply it within your organisation”

The cross sector perspective at ADAPT’s Edge events keeps Andrew Dome returning each year.

He values the chance to hear from experts, specialists, and peers across industries, especially as the conversation around AI shifts rapidly from experimentation to productivity, uplift, and practical use cases.

The keynote content and research have been especially useful in helping Andrew validate whether Uniting is on the right path with its own technology rollout.

He points to last year’s conversations around generative AI as part of the momentum that helped shape Uniting’s first AI agent, Buddy, which now supports the contact centre and is already delivering strong gains.

Andrew also sees real value in reconnecting with peers, strategic partners, and vendors, using those discussions and ADAPT’s roundtables to compare roadmaps, exchange ideas, and turn insight into practical next steps for the organisation.

"It’s a really good way of coming along and seeing, if you are involved in this and you’re doing this technology rollout, these platforms, that you’re really on the right track and you’ve got the research behind it."
