Our CEO thanks her team and supporters for her Proptech Leadership Award
Trish Mackie-Smith says she is still in shock and coming to terms with the magnitude of winning Proptech Association of Australia’s inaugural Proptech Leader of the Year Award 2022
”I’m feeling humbled to be considered amongst such high-profile and inspirational peers and gratitude for the recognition of my leadership style, struggles and achievements in proptech.
Congratulations to all the finalists and award applicants for your awesome work and achievements in your proptechs. I applaud the Proptech Association of Australia, the organisers, sponsors and judges for whole-heartedly contributing to such a successful and fun award night.
Not all leaders are equal and many achievements go under the radar until a light shines on them and I feel that my “accidental leadership” driven by purpose rather than mere profit has been acknowledged by this award. Thank you Proptech Australia for promoting diversity, quality, bold thinking, collaboration and for building such a smart, inspiring and exciting proptech community.
This achievement doesn’t happen without the incredible support and encouragement from many wonderful people. Deep gratitude goes to my hardworking, talented and dedicated team for bringing inndox to life - including my very patient and supportive husband, co-founder Andrew Mackie-Smith - thank you soooo much!!
