NSW iAwards Ceremony with keynote by the Hon. Jihad Dib MP

Join us in celebrating finalists in the NSW State iAwards Ceremony, a great showcase for New South Wales innovations with winners and merit recipients from the NSW State iAwards across seven categories progressing to the National iAwards later this year.

Enjoy lunch while networking with industry peers and keynote by the Hon. Jihad Dib, Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government, who will outline the NSW Government’s priorities for digital and how it is engaging with industry to drive innovative, efficient, and transformative projects that make it easier for NSW residents and businesses to access and engage with government services.

Jihad Dib is the NSW Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Youth Justice, and the Member for Bankstown. He is a former member of the Australia Day Council of NSW, the NSW Police Commissioner’s Advisory Panel, and the SBS Community Advisory Committee, and served as a Commissioner on the NSW Community Relations Commission.

Throughout his career, Jihad has campaigned tirelessly for inclusion and the celebration of diversity in our society. Prior to being elected to NSW Parliament in 2015, Jihad was Principal of Punchbowl Boys’ High School. Over almost a decade, he transformed the school by setting high expectations and developing strong relationships with the community, local organisations, and government agencies.

As a Minister in the NSW Labor Government, Jihad is driving better service provision across his portfolios to deliver for every resident of NSW. His focus is on enhancing preparedness, inclusion, and innovation in frontline customer and emergency services; disaster response and recovery; digital transformation initiatives; and early intervention and diversion programs to enhance community safety and help young people break the cycle of reoffending. He believes in the principle of continuous improvement and the potential of each person to be a positive role model.
