FuseSpark Meet-up #6
About Event
Welcome to FuseSpark, a community event series designed as a vital part of the FuseCon ecosystem. FuseSpark is our spark- a dedicated space where ideas collide and multiply to shape the future of tech leadership.
Session 1: Chasing the Signal: A Practical Approach for Learning New Technology
Speaker Arun Alo Chakraborty - CTO, Pivotlab
This session explores how professionals can approach learning new technology more deliberately, particularly in the age of AI. Instead of chasing every new tool or relying on AI for instant answers, participants will learn how to identify meaningful signals, ask better questions, experiment with emerging technologies, and decide where to invest their time and attention.
Using practical examples from technology cycles such as AI, the metaverse and NFTs, the session will explore how to evaluate emerging trends and distinguish between something that is genuinely transformative, something that is simply too early, and something that may ultimately be noise.
The session will combine practical frameworks, examples and demonstrations, with the goal of helping participants develop a repeatable approach to continuously learning and adapting as technology evolves.
Key takeaway: Participants leave with a practical way to filter signals from noise, explore new technology systematically, and continuously learn without simply chasing the latest trend.
Session 2 [Interactive] : LEARNROX - The Learning Endurance Challenge
Trainer Syahrul Azmi - Senior Learning Consultant, Melbourne Business School
HYROX combines repeated movement with functional challenges.
LEARNROX takes the same high-energy rhythm and turns it into a cognitive experience.
Across five fast-paced challenges, participants will encounter new information, retrieve what they know, make connections, apply ideas, learn from mistakes and share their understanding with others.
The goal is not simply to complete each challenge. It is to experience how learning becomes deeper, stronger and more memorable when people are actively involved.
1. The Starting Grid — Find the Signal
Can you cut through the noise and identify what matters most?
2. The Memory Sled — Pull It Back
Ready to retrieve the key ideas when the information is no longer in front of you?
3. The Connection Carry — Move the Meaning
Are you able to make sense without losing what matters?
4. The Application Wall — Make It Land
Do you know how to turn content into the right context?
5. The Knowledge Relay — Pass It Forward
Can you make learning travel enough for someone else to use it?
Key Takeaway:
Learning becomes more powerful when we understand how we learn, recognise how others learn differently, and design experiences that help everyone make sense, contribute and act.
