We’re beyond excited to share that our founders Paul Hauner, Adrian Manning and Mehdi Zerouali have taken home the Australian Young Entrepreneurs of the Year award, winning across all 21 categories and represented regions 🇦🇺 🏆 This recognition builds on their earlier win as Sydney’s Young Entrepreneurs of the Year, and it’s an incredible honour to represent the Blockchain community on the national stage. A massive thank you to our team, whose dedication and brilliance make Sigma Prime what it is, and to our clients and supporters who’ve believed in us throughout this journey. This milestone reminds us of the importance of innovation, trust, and collaboration in shaping the future of Web3 and beyond. Here's to continuing to push boundaries together 🚀 https://lnkd.in/gt5qN_sF
Congratulations to all winners and finalists in the 2024 Australian Young Entrepreneur Awards! It’s been a great privilege for us to find, recognise, and bring together so much talent. For us, the event represents the culmination of months spent getting to know a diverse cohort of go-getters who are excelling in their fields, whether it’s inventing something new or bringing a fresh approach to an old idea. Numbers are not everything, but to see that participants in these awards generate a combined turnover of more than $2 billion in FY24, and employ more than 12,000 people, makes me feel confident about the future, especially considering the tough business climate that we’re in. These awards have become more than just a ceremony. They give founders a chance to reflect on their accomplishments and trajectories, they benefit from shared experiences, insights, and a spirit that celebrates the entrepreneurial lifestyle. This year's awards were the result of a deeply engaging and thorough process. I extend my sincere gratitude to our judges; Dr Glen Richards, Michelle Laforest, Baden U'Ren, James Greig, Robert Hynes, Renee Tocco and Karl Brown, whose dedication and hard work made this initiative possible. Also, a special thank you to our corporate partners during this journey; City of Gold Coast, Brisbane City Council, Coraggio, Entrepreneurs' Organization Melbourne, Entrepreneurs' Organisation Sydney, EO Queensland - Entrepreneurs' Organization Queensland. Soda, MGI South Queensland, RSM, UQ Ventures, iVvy and Sydney Events Studio - your support is invaluable in nurturing the next generation of startups and scaleups, and we're deeply grateful for your contribution. When we come together as a community, we not only celebrate individual successes but also strengthen the entrepreneurial spirit as a whole.
