University of Wollongong graduate Ken Kencevski is taking a management tool he developed for his parent’s business to do more than found a new enterprise. He wants to work with other young entrepreneurs to show the world what Wollongong start-ups can do. After completing a Bachelor of Information Technology majoring in eBusiness the former TIGS student developed the IT and marketing side of the family business. The eBusiness and digital methods he developed over fives years recently helped Speedmaster be recognised as a Top 100 Retailer in Australia. The business run by Peter and Olivera Kencevski is now nominated for the 2016 Online Retailer Industry Awards (ORIAS). Mr Kencevski drives racing cars, is training to be an acrobatic pilot and is an Australian ambassador for the G20 Young Entrepreneurs and Global Entrepreneur Network. And he wants to take a team of UOW graduates with him.
