About this event
Celebrating 60 Years of ACS | Reflecting on 2026 | Looking Ahead to 2027
Join ACS South Australia for our 2026 End-of-Year Professional Celebration, bringing together members, industry professionals, community leaders and stakeholders for an evening of networking, recognition and reflection.
This year's celebration holds particular significance as we mark 60 years of the Australian Computer Society and recognise the individuals who have helped shape South Australia's technology landscape through our 60 for 60 initiative.
Throughout the evening, we'll reflect on the achievements and milestones of 2026, acknowledge the contributions of our members and volunteers, share updates on the evolving governance and direction of ACS South Australia, and look ahead to the opportunities and priorities for 2027.
Unlike a traditional conference or seminar, the evening will focus on professional networking and community engagement, complemented by a brief formal program featuring reflections from branch leadership, recognition of our 60 for 60 nominees, and insights into the future of ACS in South Australia.
