Bridging analytics, intelligence, decision making & frontline regulation

Melbourne
11-12 August 2026

Welcome you to the National Data & Intelligence-Led Regulation Summit.

Bringing together senior regulatory, intelligence, data and enforcement leaders, the summit tackles the hardest challenge of data-driven and intelligence-led regulation: “implementation”, turning data and intelligence into defensible, frontline regulatory decisions that reduce harm and improve outcomes.

The program goes beyond dashboards and analytics theory to explore how intelligence-led operating models are embedded in practice, from strategic risk prioritisation through to tactical targeting and operational decision-making. Across two days, you’ll hear directly from agencies that have redesigned risk models, intelligence functions, governance frameworks and workforce capability so inspectors, investigators and case officers can confidently act on insight.

This summit features case studies from across federal and state regulators and has been designed for regulators at all stages of data and intelligence maturity. Whether you are building foundational capability or refining mature intelligence practices, you will leave with practical insights to operationalise intelligence, strengthen compliance impact, and modernise how regulation is delivered and measured.

Join regulatory peers and colleagues, as they share lessons learned on structuring and positioning intelligence functions, overcoming cultural resistance, enabling effective cross agency data sharing, analytics and governance and transitioning from reactive enforcement to proactive regulation.
