Event overview

South Australia is entering a defining year of progress in digital government—one marked by major milestones worth celebrating. With the introduction of the state’s first Office for AI, strong momentum from the Digital Investment Fund, and a year of implementation under the South Australian Cyber Security Strategy, agencies are moving beyond planning and into visible delivery, and advancing a more connected Government 3.0 model.

Government Innovation Week South Australia 2026 brings together the leaders and teams driving this transformation for a week of insight, connection and shared learning. Across four cornerstone events—the Government Innovation Showcase, Cyber Security Showcase, Digital Leadership Day, and Local Government Focus Day—the program will highlight what South Australia has achieved, what’s scaling now, and what’s next in building Government 3.0 capability.

Throughout the week, delegates will explore real-world examples of:

  • AI and digital innovation reshaping public services
  • Investment-driven uplift across platforms, systems and capability
  • Cyber resilience and trust-building in service delivery
  • Workforce and leadership strategies supporting sustainable change
  • Cross-agency and council collaboration accelerating outcomes

Government Innovation Week South Australia is both a showcase and a catalyst—celebrating progress while supporting the next horizon of secure, modern and citizen-centred government for all South Australians.
