Baumgartners participates in Alliott Global Alliance’s 2026 ANZAC Conference

2026 ANZAC Conference in Melbourne

Last week, Baumgartners was proud to host the 2026 Alliott Global Alliance ANZAC Conference in Melbourne, welcoming delegates from member firms across Australia and New Zealand.

The program brought together professionals for two days of practice‑focused discussions, alliance updates and networking. Sessions explored key issues facing professional firms today, including:

• The ongoing war for talent
• Strategies for managing and sustaining firm growth
• Impending Anti‑Money‑Laundering obligations for professional services
• Comparative reviews of member firms’ technology stacks
• Applications of AI to improve client outcomes
• Cross‑border complexity in delivering advice

One of the most insightful elements of the program was the opportunity for members to openly discuss shared challenges - particularly around strategy, resourcing and supporting the strong growth many firms are experiencing across the region.
