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 at Seen Ventures, a tech innovation studio focused on uplifting businesses and people with AI. Board member and startup advisor with over two decades experience in building software and innovating using disruptive tech globally.

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.
