(news.com.au ) - Cate Blanchett took an extra participant along to the Australia 2020 summit today - her newborn son.
Blanchett will co-chair the creative meeting, less than a week after giving birth to her third child Ignatius Martin Upton.
A beaming Blanchett posed for photos with six-day-old Ignatius this morning as hundreds of delegates filed through the doors of Parliament House.
Actor Hugh Jackman praised Ms Blanchett on his way in to the talks.
"I have given her my kids - she is looking after them for the weekend," he joked.
"Cate Blanchett is superwoman ... she is amazing on every level, I think she is flawless as a person and I am thrilled that she is leading our stream."
Actor Rhys Muldoon - known for his role in the ABC kids show Play School - then joked about the "superwoman" tag.
"She has just had three kids more this morning, so there will be four little kids at the summit with her," he said.
