Robbie Fennell
Director and Chair of the Sir William Tyree Foundation.
“My father believed deeply in the value of engineering, enterprise and education. He understood that successful businesses have a responsibility to contribute beyond their own operations, to create opportunities, support innovation and help build a stronger community. Through Tyree Holdings and the Sir William Tyree Foundation, I am proud to help carry those values forward.”
As the daughter of Tyree Holdings’ founder, Sir William Tyree, she has had a close and enduring perspective on the company’s evolution from a family-founded electrical-engineering enterprise into a respected Australian industrial business.
Through her board role, Robbie contributes to the continuation of the values that shaped Sir William Tyree’s legacy: engineering excellence, integrity, long-term thinking, innovation and a genuine commitment to giving back to the community.
As Chair of the Sir William Tyree Foundation, Robbie leads the Foundation’s commitment to supporting engineering education, research, innovation and opportunity.
Robbie is particularly committed to ensuring that the Tyree legacy remains relevant to future generations, supporting students, institutions and initiatives that strengthen Australia’s engineering, technical and educational capacity.
