Carrie Edwards-Britt is a driven and passionate entrepreneur who developed a deep interest in business from a young age, inspired by her father as he built and expanded his golf company, MGI Golf. Through observing and learning from him, she gained a comprehensive understanding of business management, which quickly grew into managing global operations as the MGI brand expanded into new regions. Carrie holds a Master of Business Administration (with distinction), minoring in Leadership. She has been an active member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) since 2020 and graduated in 2023 (GAICD). Since 2014, Carrie has been the highly accomplished CEO of MGI Golf, a leader in the design and production of innovative electric golf buggies and related accessories. As one of the few women CEOs in the highly competitive golf industry, Carrie has played a crucial role in driving MGI Golf’s success and expanding its influence. In her role as CEO of MGI Golf, Carrie is responsible for overseeing the company’s overall operations, strategic planning, and product innovation. She is committed to advancing MGI Golf’s vision of delivering cutting-edge, high-quality products to golfers around the world. Under her guidance, MGI Golf has expanded its reach, enhanced its product offerings, and strengthened its position in the global golf market. Carrie is a strong advocate for promoting women in the golf industry, using her position as CEO of MGI Golf to champion gender diversity and inclusion. Recognising the importance of empowering women in a traditionally male-dominated industry, she has worked tirelessly to create opportunities for women to thrive, both within key decision-making roles at the company and across the broader golfing community. Her commitment to fostering a more inclusive and diverse environment has had a lasting impact, making her a role model to the next generation of entrepreneurs and a driving force for change in the industry.
