IPRAAC 2025
IPRAAC 2025: Where Conversations Sparked Possibilities
Cyber Awareness Month reached new heights today with an inspiring showcase of innovation, collaboration, and thought leadership. CyberWest Hub was proud to support the Indo-Pacific Robotics, Autonomy, AI and Cyber Conference and Exhibition (IPRAAC) — an event that brought together visionaries across robotics, space, cyber, and emerging technologies.
From NASA to the Office of Defence Industry, and even the incredible opportunity to meet Katherine Bennell-Pegg, Australia’s first female astronaut trained by NASA, IPRAAC delivered two days of energy, ideas, and future-focused dialogue. The atmosphere was electric, underscoring the strength and momentum of WA’s innovation ecosystem.
Our team was privileged to contribute — from hosting an engaging exhibition booth to moderating panels that sparked meaningful conversations and surfaced fresh perspectives across the cyber and digital landscape. These discussions reinforced the importance of creating platforms where diverse voices can be heard and bold ideas can thrive.
A heartfelt thank you to the outstanding organisers — David Matrai, Erin Victor, and the dedicated IPRAAC crew — for delivering such a well-executed and inspiring event. Your efforts behind the scenes made this possible.
We’re also grateful to our booth partners — Jesse Gane (Adisyn [ASX:AI1]), Gohar Rind (Intaris), and Dayna Bennett (Red Piranha) — for their energy, insights, and collaboration. Together, we created a space that truly embodied engagement and connection.
It was a pleasure reconnecting with friends and collaborators from WA Data Science Innovation Hub (WADSIH), Women in Technology WA (WiTWA), ECU School of Engineering, Australian Automation and Robotics Precinct, and many more. These catch-ups always spark new ideas and remind us of the strength of our local ecosystem.
At CyberWest Hub, we’re proud to champion initiatives like IPRAAC that unite people to explore what’s next — ensuring innovation is inclusive, impactful, and future-ready. We leave this conference inspired by the conversations, energised by the connections, and excited about the opportunities ahead.
Here’s to continuing the momentum, deepening partnerships, and shaping a digital future that works for everyone. Bring on IPRAAC 2026!
