Sydney, March 24, 2026: Oracle has launched an AI Customer Excellence Centre in Sydney, positioning it as a regional hub for organisations in Australia and Oceania that want to adopt newer AI tools and move projects from experimentation into production. The company said the centre was announced during the Oracle AI World Tour Sydney.
According to Oracle, the centre is intended to help customers, partners and developers work through AI use cases in a secure environment, with access to Oracle and third-party technologies as well as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Oracle said the facility is meant to reduce complexity, speed decision-making, and shorten time to market.
The company also said the centre will support training, certifications, experimentation and proof-of-concept work. Oracle described it as part of a broader global network of innovation centres, with the Sydney site focused on helping organisations design, architect and validate solutions before wider deployment.
“AI will change everything, and it will fuel the next wave of opportunity and growth,” said Stephen Bovis, regional managing director, Australia and New Zealand, Oracle. “The Oracle AI Customer Excellence Centre reflects Oracle’s commitment to helping customers, partners, and developers across Australia and Oceania innovate faster using cutting-edge cloud and AI technologies. It will help build the skills and ecosystem needed to support Australia’s digital economy by enabling organisations of all sizes to experiment, learn, and turn innovation into real-world impact.”
A separate report from ARN said the hub is aimed at helping organisations train teams, test innovations in secure cloud environments and gain practical knowledge for critical business operations. ARN also noted that Oracle said the centre’s capabilities are intended to be portable across Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, even though the physical site is in Sydney.
