UOW Global Enterprises (UOWGE) is delighted and honoured to be named winner of the 2023 Australian National Export Awards in the Education and Training category at Parliament House.
According to UOW Global Enterprises Managing Director and Group CEO Marisa Mastroianni, this is a testament to UOWGE's dedication and the impact of its educational initiatives on a global scale.
Recognising education as a powerful renewable resource, UOWGE's model of offshore delivery is deeply integrated within local communities, addressing national priorities and contributing to the global education sector.
With an export income contribution of $27 billion to the Australian economy, education is a vital part of the nation’s success, and UOWGE takes pride in its significant role.
The foundation of UOWGE's success is its 'secret sauce' — a diverse and skilled global team of 1,300 professionals hailing from 52 different countries. This team's passion and expertise are crucial in driving UOWGE's mission forward.
As an organisation, the achievements over the last twelve months have been notable, including the inauguration of a state-of-the-art campus in Hong Kong, the attainment of university status for its Malaysian institution, record enrolments in Dubai and Australia, and the planning and approval of a new campus in India set to open in 2024. These milestones highlight UOWGE's commitment to expanding educational opportunities and its belief that the best is yet to come.
UOWGE extends gratitude to the Australian Government, including Austrade and the Export Council of Australia, for their endless support. This award is dedicated to the entire UOWGE team, whose collective efforts continue to elevate Australia's reputation in international education.
As UOWGE looks to the future, it remains committed to flying the flag for Australia and contributing to the nation's growth through world-class education.
