Stirling Business Incubator resident, KAPP Engineering was nominated
as a finalist in the People in Action 'Young Entrepreneur Scholarship'
program. KAPP Engineering was chosen as one of four finalists from a
strong field of seventeen applicants from a range of local businesses.
KAPP Engineering, founded by equal partners Peter Parlongo, Praveen Paul,
Amir Tanady and Kieran Sadlier provide word-class engineering services and
products in the field of industrial automation and process control.
The scholarship is awarded to someone who is under 30 years of age and has
been in business for up to two years and has demonstrated entrepreneurial spirit.
The application process for the scholarship included the submission of answers to
a series of questions which enabled the judges to develop an understanding of the
running of the business, financials, achievements and future goals. The finalists
for the award were then required to attend a face-to-face interview with the judging
panel comprising of four interviewers from People in Action.
"On interviewing the KAPP Engineering Team as part of the scholarship application
process, it was very apparent to the judging panel that their emphasis was on providing
exceptional customer service and they are very passionate about it"
