Australia businessreview

FOREWORD
WELCOME TO SEPTEMBER’S
Business Review Australia.
This month we feature a host
of topics and companies, from
smartphones and boardroom
diversity to large utilities projects
and young entrepreneurs.
More and more young
entrepreneurs are making their
way in the country, and our top 10
looks at some of the most promising
businesspeople making waves in
their industry. One such industry
is technology, and Australia’s
smartphone market is nearing
saturation, or peak smartphone as
ZTE Australia’s MD Daniel Zhao states.
In our lead feature, we discuss ZTE’s
plans to further penetrate the market
with its own phones, and how this sits
with its core business of supplying
to the big smartphone players.
Also featured is Grant Thornton
Australia’s Diversity Leader Nicole
Bradley, who asks ‘when will gender
diversity at leadership levels be
‘the norm’ instead of the ‘strived
for’?’ Bradley identifies three key
issues that need to be addressed in
order to make genuine progress.
Other exclusive insights this month
come from energy specialists Civmec
and First Solar, while all things
construction are discussed with
water infrastructure firm Viadux.
We also look into the world of
sport with an exclusive interview
with Tennis Australia’s Craig Tiley, in
charge of raising the profile of tennis
in the country and making sure the
Australian Open remains among the
most popular slam on the calendar.
