Australian Corporate Treasury Association (ACTA) Conference 2026 

 

The Challenge 

With record registration numbers projected, the 2026 conference presented both an exciting opportunity and a significant operational challenge. As attendance continued to grow, every aspect of the event needed to be carefully planned to accommodate increased delegate volumes while maintaining the high-quality experience attendees had come to expect. 

Key priorities included: 

• Managing the largest delegate audience in ACTA Conference history 

• Delivering a multi-day conference program across multiple streams 

• Coordinating a large sponsor and exhibitor portfolio 

• Creating engaging networking experiences throughout the event 

• Ensuring seamless attendee movement across conference, exhibition, and social event spaces 

• Maintaining exceptional production standards and on-site event delivery 

 

Our Solution 

Ke. Creative Events was tasked to deliver a comprehensive event strategy covering conference planning, logistics, production, sponsorship integration, registration management, delegate communications, and onsite execution. 

 

Conference Program 

The three-day program was designed to balance strategic insights with practical treasury applications. Featuring keynote presentations, fireside chats, panel discussions, and breakout streams, the agenda explored: 

• Global economic outlooks 

• Geopolitical developments 

• Risk management and resilience 

• Funding and liquidity strategies 

• Artificial intelligence and digital transformation 

• Sustainable finance and energy considerations 

• Emerging treasury technologies 

The carefully curated content ensured relevance across a diverse delegate base while encouraging active participation and discussion. 

 

Sponsor & Exhibitor Management 

A key focus was delivering value for ACTA’s partner network while enhancing the delegate experience. 

The conference featured: 

• 1 Principal Partner 

• 3 Major Partners 

• Supporting, Session, and General Partners 

• A dedicated exhibition showcasing leading treasury and finance solution providers 

Strategic sponsor integration across the conference program and social events created meaningful engagement opportunities while maintaining a delegate-first experience. 

 

Networking Experiences 

Recognising that networking is one of the most valued elements of any professional conference, we designed and delivered a series of high-impact social functions, including: 

• Welcome Reception sponsored by J.P. Morgan 

• Rooftop Networking Breakfast at The Aviary 

• Pre-Dinner Drinks sponsored by Bank of China 

• ACTA Awards Dinner sponsored by ANZ 

• HSBC Closing Lunch 

Each event was designed to encourage genuine connections while complementing the overall conference experience.

The event successfully brought together treasury professionals, financial institutions, technology providers, and industry leaders from across Australia and international markets, reinforcing ACTA’s position as the peak professional body for the treasury community.
