Meet the entrepreneurs and changemakers shaping our future: a couple developing eco-friendly plastic wrap, a university professor on a mission to reverse extinction, and a Melbourne start-up tackling textile waste.
Their inspiring stories—and many others—are featured in the latest edition of Possible, Kwik Kopy Australia’s magazine that celebrates the resilience, creativity, and tenacity of Australia’s entrepreneurial spirit. Created in partnership with Engage Media, Possible delves into these personal journeys, highlighting how start-ups and small businesses are turning challenges into opportunities and pioneering ideas across diverse industries. This edition reinforces Kwik Kopy’s dedication to supporting a thriving entrepreneurial community.
To mark the magazine’s release, Kwik Kopy hosted an inspiring event at Morris House in Melbourne’s CBD, bringing together a dynamic community of business leaders and creators. The event featured entrepreneur panellists such as Daniel McKenzie, Kwik Kopy Franchisee of the Year; Yesha Patel, Founder of after-au; Stefan Di Benedetto, Founder of SOLBEVI; Steph Say, CEO of HoMie; Jessica Hatzis, Founder of Frank Body and Willow & Blake; and Kellie Northwood, CEO of Visual Media Association. In her opening remarks, Kwik Kopy Australia CEO Sonia Shwabsky emphasised how Possible serves as both a tribute to these changemakers and a platform to inspire the next wave of Australian entrepreneurs shaping the future with courage and purpose.
“As we launch the second edition of Possible Magazine, it’s not just about celebrating business wins—it’s about acknowledging the journeys behind them. The grit, the innovation, the moments where things weren’t easy, but you kept going. That’s what makes this group so special. You’re the ones who see obstacles as opportunities, and you’re the ones driving real change in your industries.” said Sonia Shwabsky, CEO of Kwik Kopy Australia, in her opening speech.
Possible has a particular focus on championing small business and start-ups, featuring stories from across a range of industries, placing them as a unified celebration of entrepreneurial spirit and creativity. The issue highlights the various walks of life the business owners have come from and how ultimately following their passions lead them to success.
“Today is also a moment to connect, inspire one another, and keep pushing our shared mission forward—to build a community where entrepreneurship thrives and where people are driven to take risks and dream big. Possible Magazine gives us a chance to spotlight these stories. It’s a platform for people like you, leaders who are shaping the future with courage and purpose.” Shwabsky continued.
