AWA Limited, one of Australia’s best known names in technology, in conjunction with the Sydney Graduate School of Management [SGSM] at the University of Western Sydney, have agreed to sponsor a research project on Value Chain Management.

Professors David Walters and Stan Glaser will lead the project and they will focus on the dynamics of how value chains operate in the ICT (Information and Communications Technology) Services market.

“We are very excited at the opportunity to work with and support the University on this project. We are already taking a value chain driven approach to building our own business and this is finding a lot of resonance with our business partners,” said Mark Rainbird, Managing Director, AWA Limited.
