Queensland entrepreneur and co-founder of health tech company Anthogen Australia, Alison Stokes has been awarded a $5,000 tech grant and a mentoring session through the Optus Business Plus tech grant and mentorship program.
Green Knott founder Anthony Gabrielian will also receive a $5,000 tech grant and mentoring session with one of two prominent Australian entrepreneurs Jamal Elsheikh and Jo Burston, as part of the program.
The grants were announced as part of the Optus Business Plus Roadshow, which toured Australia earlier this year.
Anthogen Australia was launched in 2021 by its founding team, CEO and registered nurse Alison Stokes, orthopaedic surgeon Dr Jason Tsung and registered nurse Courtney Allan.
Stokes told SmartCompany it is a great honour and privilege to be chosen as one of the recipients of the Optus Business Plus tech grant for 2023.
“It means a lot given that we’re an early-stage tech health company,” she says.
“We require a lot of tech, to support our tech, and support our patients.
“Optus has some really innovative technical solutions for us to be able to contact patients and manage our data.
