The ANZCCJ Sustainability Committee in collaboration with Ashurst and the South Australian Government, supported by Austrade is pleased to invite you to an afternoon of discussion, insights, and networking at the Australian Embassy in Tokyo.
Australia and Japan are at a pivotal moment in their energy transitions - navigating the shared challenge of advancing decarbonisation while maintaining energy security, industrial competitiveness and investor confidence. Against a backdrop of tightening insurance markets, capital constraints, supply-chain disruption and growing geopolitical uncertainty, managing climate and financial risk is becoming central to sustaining credible transition pathways in 2026 and beyond.
This event will bring together senior leaders from finance, insurance, energy, aviation and industry to examine how Australia and Japan can work together to de-risk the transition while preserving commercial viability and long-term energy security. Discussion will focus on project bankability, regulatory and geopolitical pressures, and practical tools to strengthen resilience across bilateral supply chains and investment flows.
Key areas of strategic alignment between the two countries will be explored, including the evolving role of LNG as a transition fuel, hydrogen and ammonia value chains, carbon markets and supply-chain security, and the growing importance of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in decarbonising hard-to-abate sectors. Perspectives from across aviation, finance, insurance and energy will help connect policy ambition with commercially grounded transition pathways.
Join us for an afternoon of candid discussion and networking as we explore how Australia and Japan can navigate climate, financial and geopolitical risk - and build a more secure, resilient and investable energy transition together.

Over the past decade, a wave of major transport investment has defined Australia's infrastructure sector, supported by robust state finances, economic rationalism, and federal backing.
While ongoing investment in transport and social infrastructure remains integral to the Australian economy, today the pipeline for infrastructure looks substantially different, providing a new set of opportunities.
The expansion of cloud computing and AI is expected to drive substantial demand for data centers in the next decade. Simultaneously, the geopolitical landscape is prompting increased investments in defense and security. Additionally, the urgent need for decarbonization is set to propel growth in the energy transition sector.
As Australia and Japan draw closer and closer, join us to discuss how our two nations can collaborate to harness these emerging opportunities and shape the next decade of infrastructure development.
