Schneider Electric Innovation Day 2026 to explore the future of AI-ready infrastructure and ecosystem-led innovation
Schneider Electric, a global energy technology leader, will bring together partners, integrators, distributors, EcoXperts, technology leaders and customers at its flagship Innovation Day 2026: Building Smarter Tech Ecosystems, taking place at Sofitel Wentworth in Sydney on 18 August.
As organisations navigate accelerating AI adoption, rising energy demands and growing infrastructure complexity, Schneider Electric’s Innovation Day 2026 will explore how smarter technology ecosystems can drive business growth and resilience.
The event is built around three major forces reshaping technology investment and business decision-making: the evolving energy landscape, rapid digitisation and the emergence of a more complex, multi-polar world. These shifts are driving demand for scalable, resilient and sustainable digital infrastructure, as well as stronger collaboration across technology ecosystems.
Farokh Ghadially, Vice President, IT and Data centres Schneider Electric, says: “The convergence of AI, digitisation, electrification and sustainability is fundamentally reshaping how organisations design, operate and scale their technology infrastructure.
“As customer challenges become more complex, success increasingly depends on connected ecosystems that bring together technology, expertise and partnerships. Innovation Day is an opportunity for customers, partners and industry leaders to explore how collaboration can unlock greater agility, intelligence and long-term value in the AI era.”
Throughout the day, attendees will hear from industry experts, customers and Schneider Electric leaders on the trends shaping the future of technology ecosystems. Sessions will explore AI-ready infrastructure, IT/OT convergence, software and services, sustainability, operational visibility and total cost of ownership.
Key themes include building AI-ready ecosystems, expanding digital and recurring revenue opportunities, improving operational visibility and accelerating innovation through ecosystem collaboration.
Attendees will also have access to the Innovation Hub, live demonstrations, Meet-the-Expert sessions and the interactive Dragon’s Den: Smart Ecosystem Edition challenge.
Innovation Day will conclude with the APC Channel Partner Awards, recognising partner achievements and contributions throughout FY26.
