Investment NSW Executive Director Maroun El Khoury said:

“International students generate significant benefits for NSW – they bring new ideas and skills to our society, diverse perspectives to our classrooms and communities, and sought-after talent to NSW’s workforce.

“The 2024 NSW International Education Awards are all about recognising the students that are making a difference to our communities and acknowledging the education providers, businesses and community groups that are strengthening the international student experience through various programs and initiatives.

“International students from all over the world are welcomed and valued in NSW. By providing world-class educational opportunities, we're laying the groundwork for a prosperous and sustainable future for NSW.

“As these students become alumni and ambassadors for our state, they continue to promote NSW as a destination of choice for education, tourism, and investment, further strengthening our global reputation and influence.

“I congratulate all of this year’s finalists that are helping to make NSW an even better place for international students to further their education.”
