Science and later a Masters in
Commerce.
Camtu, the mother of a 10-
month-old baby, is now mixing

returning to Wollongong in 1996
where she was employed as a
project leader at the University
of Wollongong.
She's been labelled by an international communications outlet as the 'Network Queen from Wollongong', but it's her own personal story that helps her motivate others at home and abroad.

Local firm selected among the nation's top ICT companies

The honour came with Corporate Research Foundation International's launch of Top ICT companies in Australia 2nd Edition at a function at Darling Harbour late last year.
A Corrimal IT company has been recognised as one of the top IT companies in Australia.

CleverLink has been listed in the Top ICT companies in Australia publication. The book was launched on 27th Nov 2003 at Darling Habour by the Corporate Research Foundation (CRF).
“Australia’s IT market is energetic and constantly changing, but the market pressures of recent years have forced companies to adapt or die. Those that have survived have done so because of careful management and business strategies emphasising long-term viability over short-term excess. Their stories deserve to be told, both to laud their successes and to provide guidance for other ICT innovators hoping to succeed in this ever-challenging industry,” says managing editor, David Braue, Technology & Business.
CleverLink was proud to be part of the Illawarra ICT Forum on the 6th of November 2003, which was organised by the NSW State and Regional Development. This full day event showcased many strengths, innovations and opportunities for the ICT industry in the Illawarra region.
