Pitch@Palace participation

UOW withdraws following review

The ¾«¶«´«Ã½ of ¾«¶«´«Ã½ (UOW) has reviewed its involvement in Pitch@Palace in accordance with its agreement with Pitch@Palace Australia.

The ¾«¶«´«Ã½ has considered whether continued involvement with Pitch@Palace is in line with its institutional values and strategic objectives, or remains an effective avenue for supporting entrepreneurship and innovation.

The recent widespread media and public commentary regarding His Royal Highness the Duke York was a consideration in that review.

The ¾«¶«´«Ã½ of ¾«¶«´«Ã½ has withdrawn from further engagement with Pitch@Palace.

UOW’s association with Pitch@Palace had a positive impact, opening international opportunities for many Australian entrepreneurs.

The ¾«¶«´«Ã½â€™s long history of supporting entrepreneurs and small businesses will continue into the future via other programs and initiatives, including its small business accelerator and Advantage SME program.
