The speakers’ list is headlined by the keynote speaker Stephen Scheeler, former Facebook CEO for Australia And New Zealand.

His experience at the heart of Silicon Valley is unparalleled, and he has a unique ability to inspire audiences of all kinds with rare insight, humour & humility.  

AlayaCare co-founder and CEO, Adrian Schauer, will also take to the stage. Mr Schauer is a serial technology entrepreneur having built two successful mobile software companies; both achieving leadership positions in their respective markets. 

He also co-founded the Madiro Fund, a non-profit organisation created to support innovative solutions to health problems in low-income countries. 

Annette Hili, General Manager, AlayaCare ANZ, brings more than 23 years of experience in the aged and community care industry, holding numerous positions, including COO of BaptistCare.

Ms Hili has committed her whole career to aged and community care and is passionate about doing all she can to support the industry which provides quality care and support. 

In her role as AlayaCare General Manager ANZ, Ms Hili leads the growth strategy of the ANZ operations, focusing on delivering world-class technology, driving innovation and leveraging data to cultivate improved outcomes for aged and disability care providers. 

Other familiar faces include Andrew McDonald, Chief Product and Technology Officer, AlayaCare; Ben Woolley, Chief Executive Officer, Redmap; Greg Satur, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Hayylo; and John Perkins, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Checked In Care. 

Mr Satur is a seasoned entrepreneur and executive with over 25 years of experience working at the dynamic intersection of teams and their customers. He has previously spoken to Hello Leaders about the importance of effective communication with aged care participants.

“How can we be more customer-centric? It’s represented in some of the non-compliance feedback you see coming back from audits, which is really around how can we listen better to our clients’ needs. Then it’s about how can we help them express those needs and synthesise that information,” Mr Satur said.

Similarly, Mr Woolley has shared tips for document management, one of the most burdensome tasks in aged care. With many providers still operating with paper trails, he knows where major efficiency gains can be made. 

“I was blown away when I heard about the hoops that home care providers were having to jump through to claim back client spending, and I knew that there was a major opportunity to save aged care workers time,” Mr Woolley said.
