jerome-BowmanJerome Bowman - The Gentlemen’s Supply Co.


At 26 Jerome Bowman has strived to fulfil his ambitions in both the fashion and entrepreneurial worlds. Whilst studying Business at University; Jerome believes that his creativity was amplified, but thirst for hands on business was driving him to finish as soon as possible to commence full time work. Jerome’s family has been involved in the fashion industry in Australia for over 60 years, and he has worked in the business since his teens. At 22 he was full time in one of Sydney’s top tier menswear stores – Claude Sebastian.
Jerome attributes his diversification into the online realm with his tech startup – The Gentlemen’s Supply Co. (www.gentlemenssupply.com.au) – to the current retail climate and trends, believing the more challenging it became, the more creative and driven he has become.

Sebastian-KadeSebastian Kade - WhatTime


Sebastian Kade is the “pixel pushing code gorilla†that created WhatTime from the ground up, a innovative way for university students to view, share and compare their class timetable.


After a successful and disruptive launch, WhatTime is used by over 8K students from UTS and MQ alone. It not only changed how students receive and share their timetable but is also pressuring universities to bring their systems into the modern web era.
