Melbourne, Australia, May, 2019 – Harrison Wills Schipke, 5th year student of the RMIT School of Engineering was recently awarded the INVENIO prize at the 2019 RMIT School of Engineering Prize Ceremony. The INVENIO prize was awarded in recognition of Schipke’s merit as being the Best Automotive Engineering student in their penultimate year for 2018.

“As a pioneering business solutions provider based in Australia, we recognise the importance of good talent in the advancement and progress of any industry,” said Janice Middleton, COO of INVENIO, who presented the award at the ceremony.

In that regard, it is important that we recognise up and coming talent who will one day become future leaders and experts in their field.”

With the Industrial Renaissance expected to change industries across the world, the demand for novel ideas and methods that will take advantage of the tools of tomorrow would only increase, which is why the INVENIO prize was created as an ongoing initiative to recognise and support young talent in Australia.

“I am very grateful for the INVENIO prize and glad that the dedication I hade made to my studies has been recognised by both RMIT and INVENIO,” said Schipke. “INVENIO’s sponsorship of this award is proof of their dedication to the Australian industry and local talent.”
