Q Agency, the Penrith-based creative and digital marketing company, has announced the Q Agency Scholarship for Excellence, in partnership with Western Sydney University (WSU).
The scholarship will be awarded to a final-year Bachelor of Design (Visual Communication) student with a GPA of 5.0 or higher.
This initiative marks Q Agency as the first marketing agency to offer a scholarship program in collaboration with the university, fostering emerging visual communications talent.
Michael Noone, Co-founder and Head of Brand and Creative at Q, is proud to support the next generation of creative professionals.
“Q Agency’s success is deeply rooted in western Sydney,” Noone explained.
“As we celebrate our growth, we’re excited to give back to the community that has supported us. This scholarship represents our commitment to nurturing local talent and contributing to the future of our industry. Our connection with WSU runs deep, and we’re proud to strengthen it further through this initiative.”
The scholarship is a natural progression of the team’s ongoing collaboration with WSU, building on the success of its recent photography masterclass.
Alongside the scholarship, Q Agency is also introducing a refreshed structure to its paid internship program in 2025. This program aligns with university timelines and projects, offering students practical experience in a rapidly growing agency environment.
Josh Richardson, Co-founder and Technology Director, explained the importance of supporting emerging talent and contributing to a thriving and sustainable future.
“Our journey of attracting leading Australian and global companies has been remarkable. Now, we’re investing in the next generation of visual communicators who embody the diligence and innovation that have driven our success and will bring value to our client partners,” he said.
The Scholarship program is set to commence in Semester 1, 2025.
