We were delighted to have Professor Yvonne Breyer, our Deputy Dean, Education and Employability, welcome guests, and MC the evening. The theme for the night focused on determination, with MQBS Executive Dean Professor Eric Knight using his welcome address to highlight the perseverance that has led these students to where they are today.

Our guest speaker, MBA alumnus and Managing Director of Microsoft Australia & New Zealand, Steven Worrall, also reflected on the importance of determination. We were also joined by our generous industry partners, many of whom had the opportunity to present their award directly to the student award recipients.
