Jawwad Khan
Master of Information Technology graduate Jawwad Aamer Khan is living proof of the power of regional ideas and purpose-driven innovation to generate global impact. The Melbourne-based entrepreneur is determined to democratise technology, building solutions that serve not only business, but society as a whole.
“I am energised by creating solutions that empower people – whether it’s developing technologies that help warehouses operate more intelligently, mentoring young entrepreneurs to unlock their potential, or building tools to support small and mid-sized farmers with affordable precision robotics,” says Jawwad.
“Every project is a ripple that not only advances industries but also uplifts communities, driving innovation that is inclusive, accessible and deeply human-centred.”
Jawwad moved to Australia in 2016 to complete his master’s degree at Charles Sturt, stepping quickly into the industry. He led high-impact projects including the nationwide technology rollout for the Caltex to Ampol transition, and spent a year working with CSIRO and LiveCorp on the LiveX project underpinning Australia’s global livestock supply chain. The experience fuelled his entrepreneurial fire.
“I was inspired by the combination of real-world challenges I encountered and the belief that technology could be a powerful tool to solve them. I wanted to simplify complexity, build meaningful solutions, and make a lasting impact across critical industries like supply chain and agriculture.”
In 2023, Jawwad founded MyCloud Services, an IT consultancy specialising in warehouse automation, robotics integration and digital supply chain transformation. The company now helps major clients such as Pandora Jewellery, Officeworks, Publicis Sapient and other top-tier retailers transition to smarter, more efficient systems.
Drawing on his AgTech experience, Jawwad also launched AgRobot, a research-backed startup delivering affordable robotics to small and medium-sized farmers. Placing accessible precision agriculture technology for crop monitoring, soil analysis and harvesting into the hands of more producers, its tools are helping bridge the digital divide in agriculture.
Jawwad says his Charles Sturt studies and the guidance of teachers, including course coordinator Rajasekaran Lakshmiganthan, have been instrumental to his success. He now pays this forward as a passionate mentor to students and early-stage entrepreneurs.
“Raja’s belief in my potential gave me the confidence to pursue opportunities that felt out of reach at the time, helping me secure a role in my field early on despite the limitations of being an international student,” he says.
“Paired with my own determination, that became the foundation for everything I’ve built since. It’s also why I now mentor others – because I know how powerful it can be when someone truly believes in you.”
