UTS Finance Department welcomes new honorary Industry Fellow Philipp Ivanov

27 November 2024
Philipp Ivanov

UTS Finance Department would like to welcome Philipp Ivanov, who has been appointed as an Honorary Industry/Professional Fellow with UTS.

Philipp is a foreign policy leader and China specialist. He advises governments, businesses, and universities on geostrategy. With extensive executive experience in government, business, think tanks and universities in Australia, the United States, China, Asia and Russia, he is an innovative and strategic leader with a strong commercial acumen and a track record of transforming organisations and teams.

He is the founder and CEO of Geopolitical Risks and Strategy Practice (GRASP), Senior Fellow at the Asia Society Policy Institute (where he founded the China-Russia Program) and an advisory board member of Geopolitical Strategy and Global Women Asia. He was the Chief Programming Officer at Asia Society New York and CEO of Asia Society Australia from 2015 to 2023 overseeing a turn-around strategy that transformed the Center into Australia’s leading business and policy think-tank. In 2023, Philipp was a Fulbright Scholar in Australia-United States Alliance Studies at Georgetown University in Washington DC and in 2009 Australian Government’s Endeavour Executive Fellow at the China National Academy of Education Administration in Beijing. Previously, he was a policy officer working on China at the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. Philipp has a Bachelor (Honours) degree in Chinese history from the Far Eastern National University and a Master of Educational Leadership from RMIT University. He is a fluent Chinese and Russian speaker.

Philipp is assisting us in designing and facilitating a new executive education program the UTS Business School will launch in 2025: The Executive Playbook for Managing Geopolitical Risk.

This program is being developed in collaboration with global thought leaders, former government officials, and industry practitioners to address the urgent need for strategic resilience in today’s volatile and multipolar world. It is tailored to help executives identify and navigate geopolitical challenges, transforming them into strategic opportunities. Through immersive simulations, real-time scenario planning, and sector-specific case studies, participants will gain actionable insights into the intersection of geopolitics, business strategy, and risk management. The program also offers exclusive networking opportunities with top industry and policy experts.
