His career also includes heading the secretariat for Professor Ross Garnaut’s climate change review in 2008 and a decade as a senior leader in the Victorian public service, including a tenure as Deputy Secretary in the Department of Premier and Cabinet.

Known for his free-thinking and willingness to challenge conventional wisdom, Dr Ben-David writes and presents extensively on market, regulatory and governance reforms. His involvement with organisations like ClimateWorks Australia, the Consumer Policy and Research Centre and the Regulatory Policy Institute further showcases his dedication to impactful regulatory practice.

Paul Newson, Principal at Vanguard Overwatch, said, “Having Dr Ron Ben-David share his expertise and insights at Regulating the Game 2025 will be illuminating. His unique perspective and vast experience are sure to provoke thought and inspire discussions and innovation. This conference continues to set high standards with unmatched speaker line-ups and content that addresses the sector’s most pressing issues.”
