How soon is AI coming for your job?

An exclusive panel hosted by Mission Ready CEO, Diana Sharma

In an AI-powered world, the rules of career success are being rewritten — and those who understand the shift will shape what’s next.

Join us for a dynamic evening of insights and provocations from three of Aotearoa’s most forward-thinking voices in tech and innovation:

Cathy O'Sullivan

Editorial Director for CIO, CSO, ARN, and Reseller News, with a front-row seat to the technologies transforming enterprise.

Husain Al-Badry

Co-founder of Seen Ventures, an AI innovation studio. A leading practitioner for over two decades .

Avinash de Silva

Head of Technology at Alvarium, board member at IT Professionals NZ, and AI strategist helping financial services navigate digital change with purpose, pace, and a people-first mindset.

Together with host Diana Sharma, CEO of Mission Ready and champion of future-focused talent, this panel will explore:

  • The real skills employers are hiring for in an AI-mediated world
  • How AI is changing who gets opportunities — and how you can create your own
  • Are you being seen for the skills that matter? Can your network open doors algorithms can't? And how do you make your work visible in a world reshaped by AI?
  • Discover which tech careers will grow in demand.

This is more than a panel. It’s a career wake-up call.

If you're a future founder, career switcher, or just AI-curious — this event will help you stop watching the future, and start building it.
