Philip Dalidakis, who is a former Victorian Minister for Innovation and the Digital Economy, has launched a new corporate advisory firm, Orizontas, with two partners.
Dalidakis, along with co-founders Patrick Gibbons and Vanessa Liell, hope the new firm will provide clients with political, climate, business and communications advice.
Gibbons is a former diplomat, policy advisor and business consultant, while Liell was recently the executive director of Commtrac.
Dalidakis, who is also a former executive General Manager of corporate services at Australia Post, says there’s no better time than the present to open the firm.
“We believe now is the right time to open an advisory firm that is solutions-led, values-based, authentic and honest – focused on market, climate, political and reputational risk,” Dalidakis told AdNews.
Orizontas also announced the inaugural members of its advisory board on Friday, including the former Premier of Victoria Ted Baillieu, C-Suite executive Annette Carey and entrepreneur Kee Wong.
