A new timetabling experience
News 22 MarchA message from Chief Operating Officer Dr Stephen Weller: ACU will move to a more flexible, accurate, transparent and easier to use timetabling software system from Semester 2.
Following evaluation and voting by a panel of expert judges, ACU Co-Lab is delighted to announce Victoria Edghill as the winner of the ACU Co-Lab Social Enterprise Award for 2022. Victoria has won $10,000 and six months of mentoring with an ACU executive.
Victoria`s three-minute pitch was for her social enterprise, Relievables which supports organisations to demonstrate their social and environmental impact. This is done by automating each step of a fragmented system, integrating seamlessly with existing business system and ultimately empowering organisations to take end-to-end control of their environmental, social, governance (ESG) landscape.
“I am incredibly grateful to ACU Co-Lab and all involved for the opportunity to participate and am over the moon to have won the Social Enterprise Award. Social Enterprises are not for the faint-hearted – doing business, especially during tough times, is already difficult enough however ensuring that your social purpose remains front and centre of every single decision presents many additional barriers and complexities. Winning this award, validates not only the need for what we are providing but the way in which we are approaching it. As a sole founder and a brand new mum, the prize money will allow me to implement our vision at a faster pace and expand the team in order to deliver our mission "of every business being a responsible one”.Victoria is the Founder and CEO of Relievables, an ESG Intelligence Platform that enables businesses to take control of their social and environmental impact. She is also the Founder of ethical fashion label Citizen of the Planet, a brand dedicated to closing the gap towards circularity and advocating for us all to behave as conscious citizens instead of mindless consumers.

The Co-Lab team were thrilled with the range and quality of innovative ideas from ACU students, staff and budding entrepreneurs that responded to the focus of the Social Enterprise Series.
We would like to thank all entrants for their participation in the initiative, particularly for their time in researching, practising, and recording their pitch video. We are further encouraged by the underlying positive impact intended by the various solutions presented.
