2024 BCCM CEO Roundtable and Directors’ Dinner

19 June 2024

We had a fantastic afternoon discussing AI and growth mindsets at yesterday’s BCCM CEO Roundtable and Directors’ Dinner.

Our thanks to the Hon Ed Husic MP, Minister for Industry and Science, who joined members for our roundtable discussion on managing risks and innovating AI for member benefit.

Tim Trumper, NRMA Chair, Quantium founding shareholder, and author of AI: Game on, discussed use cases to help co-ops and mutuals find their AI North Star.

Thank you to the Hon Stephen Jones MP, Assistant Treasurer and Minister for Financial Services for your remarks and open dialogue on members on the role of co-ops and mutuals as an ally in competition reform and as community-focused enterprises.

Lorraine Thomas, HCF Australia’s COO, launched our 2024 National Mutual Economy Report. The NME has been measuring the growth and performance of our sector for a decade. Thank you to HCF for supporting the vital NME Report since 2017.
