Join us for the ASCA Annual General Meeting
We're calling for nominations for key leadership positions as we continue to shape the future of smart communities across Australia.
We're inviting passionate members to take an active role in guiding ASCA’s journey toward its 2030 Strategic Plan. Serving as a Board Director is a unique opportunity to:
Influence ASCA’s direction and priorities
Collaborate and network with peers
Gain valuable governance and leadership experience
Board Directors are covered by insurance, meet every six weeks, and take on responsibilities aligned with their role and the 2026–27 Operational Plan. A dedicated planning session will be held shortly after the AGM to ensure we're ready to hit the ground running in 2026.
Available Positions:
President and Vice President (office bearer positions)

Reference Working Group Re-Election
As part of the AGM, the Reference Working Group will also be re-elected, with 4 seats available.
Since forming in July 2025, the Reference Working Group has been actively engaged in discussing engagement ideas for Barcelona Smart City Expo World Congress and co-designing task forces with the ASCA board. This group plays a vital role in shaping ASCA's strategic initiatives and member engagement activities.
