Our Scholars Network: the Westpac 100
The Westpac 100 is the network for people who have received
scholarships through the Westpac Scholarship program. Scholars
from across all five scholarship programs are given membership to
the Westpac 100 which will grow by 100 members per year, forever. Celia Vandestadt
Future Leaders Scholar
The single minded proposition for the Westpac 100 is to create an
empowered network of diverse, talented and committed
collaborators whose drive along with bold thinking will help shape a
better future for all Australians.

The Westpac 100 will help to facilitate access for the scholars and
build their profiles across four focus areas:
Mentoring and coaching
Personal brand building
Career and life skills
Networking

Annual Scholars Summit

Each April, the Westpac Bicentennial Foundation will bring the most
recent cohort of scholars to the Scholars Summit to honour their
achievement and to participate in tailored workshops, hear from
business and academic luminaries and form connections with fellow
scholars.
