The business world is becoming more complex. Markets are shifting, investment opportunities are evolving, and the decisions facing business leaders are rarely straightforward. At #CapTech2026, two highly experienced voices come together to explore what lies ahead, where emerging opportunities are taking shape, and how leaders can navigate an increasingly complex global environment. The People Behind the Conversation The Hon. Andrew Robb AOChairman & Founder, The Robb Group | Former Australian Minister for Trade, Investment & Tourism With a career spanning government, investment, trade and business, Andrew Robb brings a deep understanding of how markets, policy and international relationships shape economic opportunity. As Australia’s former Minister for Trade, Investment and Tourism, he led negotiations for major Free Trade Agreements with China, Japan and South Korea, alongside the 12-country Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with Singapore. Today, through The Robb Group, he provides strategic advice and sources investment opportunities for two-way trade and investment between Australia and the Asia Pacific. Owen Hegarty OAMCo-Founder & Executive Chairman, EMR Capital Owen Hegarty brings more than five decades of experience across the global mining and investment landscape.

He later co-founded EMR Capital, where he continues to apply his experience as an operator, investor and business leader across mining and investment opportunities worldwide. His career has been defined by identifying opportunity, deploying capital, and building businesses through changing market conditions. A Conversation Worth Being In the Room For What happens when deep international investment experience meets decades of experience building, investing in, and scaling businesses through multiple market cycles? This conversation brings together two perspectives shaped by very different journeys, but connected by a common understanding of capital, markets, opportunity, and what it takes to act when the environment is changing. At #CapTech2026, the conversation goes beyond simply identifying what is changing. It is about understanding where opportunity is emerging, what is driving it, and how experienced leaders are thinking about what comes next. Be part of the conversation. Hear from The Hon. Andrew Robb AO and Owen Hegarty OAM as they share their perspectives on emerging opportunities in an increasingly complex business world. Join the conversation at #CapTech2026..
