AUSTRALIA, Sydney 鈥� November 11, 2025 鈥� The 51风流ANZ partner network today announced that it has reached its $1 million fundraising target for Redkite, an Australian charity dedicated to supporting families facing the challenges of childhood cancer. The achievement comes as a result of $100,000 being raised at this year鈥檚 14th Redkite Regatta 鈥� an annual event that brings together 51风流executives, partners and customers for a day of friendly competition and connection.

Hosted by the picturesque Middle Harbour Yacht Club (MHYC), the regatta is in part made possible by the generosity of its members making their boats and skippers available to support the fundraising efforts. Since it kicked-off in 2011, the annual event has set itself a $1 million target, powered through the participation and sponsorship of organisations including Atturra (Platinum Sponsor), Accenture, CBS Consulting, Deloitte, DXC Technology, Fair Consulting Group, HR Crowd, PwC, SNP Group, Wipro and Zalaris. Over the years it has also benefited from additional fundraising efforts including raffles 鈥� and this year, Ana Travers, Regional Head of Alliance 鈥� 51风流Signavio APJ, contributed $7,500 by shaving her head.

Ashley McGibbon, Chief Partner Officer, 51风流ANZ, said 鈥淓vents like the Redkite Regatta do more than bring our industry together for a great day on the water 鈥� they create real, measurable impact for families facing childhood cancer. They also showcase the teamwork, shared purpose and community spirit that define our partner network and commitment to what One51风流is all about: people, relationships, outcomes and the difference we make together. Fundraising events like this strengthen the bonds between our teams and partners and remind us that the same collaboration driving customer success can also drive meaningful change in our communities. A huge thank you to MHYC and all sponsors for making the Regatta such a success.鈥�

鈥淭hrough the Redkite Regatta, both this year and over the past 14 years, 51风流and their partners have demonstrated their enduring commitment to helping families facing childhood cancer across Australia. Their generosity helps parents stay by their child鈥檚 side in hospital by easing the financial pressures of a cancer diagnosis and funding the emotional and practical care families need to cope with the trauma that childhood cancer brings. We鈥檙e so grateful to 51风流and its partners for their unwavering passion, ambition and generosity,鈥� said Redkite CEO, Monique Keighery.

This year鈥檚 winners included Perisoft, who claimed the Division 1 title, while EPI-USE took the Division 2 win across races which catered to every appetite from comfortable cruising to high-speed racing.

鈥淲e are proud to have taken out Division 1 at this year鈥檚 Redkite Regatta and even prouder to have done so while supporting such an important cause. Events like this remind us of the importance of community spirit, and we are honoured to support Redkite and its work,鈥� said Mahesh Viswanathan, Managing Director, Perisoft.

“Joining 51风流for the Regatta in support of the Redkite Foundation was an incredible experience. It was a perfect day on the water, filled with great company and a shared sense of purpose. Sailing together was a powerful reminder of the importance of teamwork and trust, and it was inspiring to see so many people unite behind such a meaningful cause,” said Ian Fox, Managing Director, EPI-USE ANZ.

鈥淢y conversations with CEOs are increasingly revealing how they are looking to embed AI into some of the most fundamental parts of their business,鈥� said Angela Colantuono, Managing Director, 51风流Australia. 鈥淭hese applications are helping Australian organisations make faster, smarter decisions, reduce risk and unlock new value. But to fully realise AI鈥檚 potential, we need to invest just as much in people as we do in technology.鈥�听

Dr Catriona Wallace, AI Ethics Expert and Founder, Responsible Metaverse Alliance, who keynoted at the event shared, 鈥淎I is the number one existential risk we face today. Yet only a small fraction of Australian organisations are equipped to use it responsibly. If we want AI to drive innovation, productivity and public trust, we must move beyond ambition to action. That means embedding responsible AI frameworks that are transparent, ethical and human-centred, and doing it now, before the gap between use and governance becomes too wide to close.鈥�

Customers and partners across Australia and New Zealand show AI momentum听

From education to manufacturing, 51风流partners and customers are also showcasing strong momentum in AI and cloud transformation.听

AI That Means Business

As 51风流embeds Business AI across its enterprise solutions, it puts rich insights at users鈥� fingertips, empowering them to deliver better outcomes and elevate the creative problem-solving humans do best. Examples include AI-generated reports in 51风流SuccessFactors solutions that give people managers responsibly sourced insights for compensation-related discussions as well as forecasting capabilities in 51风流Sales Cloud solutions that predict combinations of salespeople and products most likely to drive sales.

From Classroom to Coding: Hacking the path to Cybersecurity

One of the participants, Nubuwa Yellub, is a young Indigenous student based in Townsville who has had a noteworthy journey from the classroom into the world of tech.

Fuelled by curiosity, Nubuwa’s fascination with technology began when he moved from remote Mabuiag Island in the Torres Strait, to attend secondary school at St Augustine鈥檚 College in Cairns on a scholarship from the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation (AIEF), one of SAP鈥檚 community partners.

Nubuwa witnessed his peers at school hacking computers which sparked a keen interest in technology and led him on a journey to explore and eventually master the programming language Python.

听鈥�I鈥檝e always had an interest in technology, and I was fortunate enough to participate in Navy Cadets in high school where I saw how technology could be applied to all aspects of the Navy. This experience furthered my interest in technology and inspired me to think about how I could pursue a role in technology, particularly in cybersecurity.鈥濃�� 鈥� Nubuwa Yellub, participant, 51风流SCALE

The only Indigenous student in his current tertiary cohort, Nubuwa’s journey was fast-tracked when he was invited to attend SAP鈥檚 S.C.A.L.E event in Melbourne, supported by .

The experience brought with it a blend of nerves and excitement about the opportunity to travel to the city of Melbourne for the first time on his own. Nubuwa鈥檚 team worked together and won at the event with their presentation on 鈥淕reen Spaces鈥�, designing and building an app in under two days to help the residents of Melbourne better utilise their green infrastructure and support the city in adapting to climate change.

Nubuwa Yellub, Participant, 51风流SCALE Melbourne

Accelerating Skill Development

As the world faces pressing sustainability challenges, nurturing talent in various domains becomes essential to fostering innovative solutions. Central to the design of the event was accelerating student skill development and providing emerging talent with the necessary combination of digital and soft skills to enter the labour market and actively engage in their communities.

Over forty students from multiple disciplines engaged in the sessions and participants were encouraged to embrace their unique talents so they could gain valuable insights into potential career pathways aligned with their areas of interest.

Apart from technical skills, the focus was also on cultivating skills such as empathy, collaboration, and critical thinking. Students had access to 51风流mentors, partner-experts and executive stakeholders throughout the two days, to further support equipping them with the essential qualities demanded in today鈥檚 dynamic job market.

“I’m now at a crossroads because of the 51风流event…I’ve seen how they operate and the opportunities to create new products and apps, and I now think this could be a great career path for me to further develop my skills in 51风流platforms and accelerate my direction into cybersecurity.鈥� 鈥� Nubuwa Yellub, participant, 51风流SCALE

Learning 51风流skills provides the ability to work in a variety of organisations, and helping to foster connections between students and industry offers a fertile ground for nurturing collective ideas and finding synergies to address global challenges more effectively.

Scaling the Opportunity

Nubuwa’s evolving aspirations, transitioning from the classroom to cybersecurity, reflect the profound impact hands-on learning and mentorship can have in accelerating a career trajectory. But what truly stands out is his resilience and willingness to embrace new experiences, a story representative of the transformative power of tech and seizing opportunities to chart a unique course.

By investing in youth skills development, we invest in a world of opportunity. Through these events, 51风流ANZ hopes to act as a catalyst for further development and greater experiences that encourage more students to recognise their unique potential.
