Mandatory climate reporting has landed in Australia. The compliance clock is already running โ€” and for most finance teams, the numbers being asked for have never sat in the ledger.

Dr. Shalini Sharma unpacks what AASB S2 actually asks for, where the data usually isn't, how assurance changes the game, and what smaller entities will feel flowing down through the supply chain. Practical ground for anyone who has to report, or advise someone who does.

*The Power of Ownership, Resilience and Real Change*

*Luke Kennedy* went from violence, addiction and self-destruction to business owner, author, mentor and advocate.

No theory. No models. Plenty of humour. Just the honest question: what are you still blaming?

Resilience. Personal responsibility. Identity. Emotional regulation. Real human connection.

Four of the profession's most senior voices. One question: what comes next for accountants?

At the ICAI 1st Oceania International Conference, hosted by The Australian (Sydney) Chapter of ICAI, we're bringing together:

โ€ข CA Mangesh Kinare โ€” Vice President, ICAI
โ€ข Dale Pinto โ€” Global President & Chair, CPA Australia
โ€ข Taryn Rulton โ€” Deputy President, IFAC
โ€ข Ainslie van Onselen โ€” CEO, CA ANZ

Moderated by Tanuja Bissa, CFO, SDN Children's Services.

The numbers tell us what happened. The real question is what happens next. As technology, AI and uncertainty reshape organisations, finance professionals are being challenged to move beyond reporting and become voices in the decisions that shape the future.

This panel asks what the profession's institutions can do to back that shift โ€” and what accountants should expect from them.

More than 80 players, incredible energy, and an unforgettable day on the field! ๐Ÿ

The Australian (Sydney) Chapter of ICAI brought our community together for a fantastic cricket tournament celebrating not just the game, but the spirit of connection, teamwork and sportsmanship.

Kids, women and men across different skill levels took to the field with enthusiasm and competitive spirit. Seeing different generations play, support and cheer for one another made the day truly special.

Congratulations to all our participants and prize winners, and a special appreciation to Devang Jain and Nish*t Vyas for organising and executing the tournament so well.

A heartfelt thank you also to our wonderful volunteers Priyanka Vedula, Priya Kannan, Sruhad Patel and Lakshyya for contributing their time and support to make the event a success.
