Receiving the Young Australian Designer of the Year Award
Wow! What an amazing weekend I had thanks to Good Design Australia. I'm absolutely thrilled and honoured to have taken out both the 'Young Australian Designer of the Year' award as well as top prize in the 'Design Entrepreneur Award'. Australia's Good Design Awards are one of the longest standing and most prestigious design awards in the world, promoting excellence in design and innovation since 1958.
I'd also like to extend a very big congratulations to all of my fellow designers and inventors who together, design a better future for our world.
As a result of winning the 'Design Entrepreneur Awards', I receive pro-bono work by business acceleration company CtechBA worth $25,000 for my Vita haemodialysis machine project. This encompasses a commercialisation strategy / plan as well as mentoring by veterans in the field of design and business. I can't express how excited I am to have this amazing opportunity.
