We are incredibly privileged to be able showcase the intersection of AI and Education, Health, Accessibility, Financial Services, Retail, Energy and Sustainability for Australia & New Zealand at the Microsoft Innovation Hub in Sydney, Australia. It's also a career highlight to have my Innovation Hub team immerse the Prime Minister of Australia in how we have co-innovated and delivered these AI-led outcomes with our amazing Aussie customers and partners at Microsoft.

In November 2020, amidst the pandemic, we decided to create a knowledge sharing platform, a channel to share our learnings. It was a way to break through the restrictive environment we all felt and stay connected with colleagues and customers. Since Fridays were often seen as a learning day, it naturally led to the birth of #TGIF (Tech Gyan In Five). As a team, we've been doing this for the past four years, and this week marks a special milestone—Episode #200! I’ll be joined by two special guests who have been largely behind the scenes, yet instrumental in our journey at the Microsoft Innovation Hub, Bengaluru. Stay tuned this Friday for a special episode, and here’s a sneak peek into our journey so far...

What I love most about working at Microsoft Innovation Hub is the opportunity to collaborate with very cool customers to tackle digital transformation challenges using Microsoft technologies. This week, I had the pleasure of hosting a rapid prototyping session with the AEG/LA Kings team to develop an innovative fan experience for their hockey games, leveraging Microsoft Power Platform and Copilot technologies. As a hockey enthusiast, I can't wait to visit the Crypto.com Arena for a Highway Faceoff game (if you know you know, wink wink) and see our work in action! #MicrosoftInnovationHub #PowerPlatform #MicrosoftCopilot #FreewayFaceoff

Microsoft hosted an inspiring AI Hackathon at their Co-Innovation Lab in Munich, Germany in collaboration with RPS and Tetra Tech Inviting Data Analysts, Water Modellers, Business Development Leads and Software Engineers, the event was a brilliant opportunity to share best practices and unique digital approaches to complex problems. The teams co-developed a custom GPT with the ability to scale safety across our organisation empowering our team with the skills to develop new generative AI solutions with our clients. The event was inspired by the recent RPS Young seminar in the Netherlands, where Chief Technology Officer, David Goldsby, shared how AI can drive innovation and deliver intelligent solutions to our clients’ most complex challenges. With a focus on cutting-edge technology, and innovative strategies, RPS and Tetra Tech are utilising personalised digital solutions to ensure clients thrive, grow and expand in today’s fast-paced digital landscape.
