Two young staff members from the Strathfield, NSW, Worldwide Online Printing centre, have been handed the chance to pioneer a new wealth creation programme for print communication entrepreneurs.

Renee Woodward, 26, and Carly McIlvride, 22 are the first members of the scheme, which gives young Australian entrepreneurs the opportunity to unlock their commercial potential with an equity stake in a company alongside experienced business owners.

According to BRW magazine, Worldwide has been the country's fastest growing printer for the past three years and now has 82 writing, design and print centres across Australia.

Woodward currently manages Worldwide's centre in Strathfield and McIlvride works at the same centre as senior designer/customer service representative. Under the new scheme they will become, with Strathfield centre owner Vince Grieco, co-owners of new centres in Sydney suburban Brookvale and Silverwater.

The scheme is the brainchild of Grieco, who saw how hard it was for young people to move from management into business ownership, and so devised a rapid roll-out plan which could take the two young women from designers to successful multi-business owners in less than three years.
