Peter Adalbert Robert George Fritz AM (born 4 January 1943)[1] is an Australian businessman and philanthropist. He was born in Arad, Romania and migrated to Australia in 1962. He has been Group Managing Director of the TCG Group of Companies since 1971 and Chairman of institute for active policy Global Access Partners[2] since 1997.
Peter is a co-founder of well over 100 companies and several business accelerators. TCG® is a group of innovative businesses which over the last 48 years have been at the forefront of Australian innovation. They produced many breakthrough discoveries in computer and communication technologies, data transmission, management structures and the food industry, including VOIP telephony (1998); design and manufacturing of plastic note sorting machines (1995); lottery ticket validation terminal (1988); mirror microwave communication technology and CT3 technology, first in the world (1986); BOW Memory unit for cash registers (1985); credit card validation system (pioneer technology in secure transmission) and MOX memory unit for building security (1984); low-cost fossil fuel power station simulator (1983); the first echo-free, hands-free telephone handset (1978); and online stock control system - the first real-time system in commercial use (1972).
Peter established and chaired the National Incubator Companies Board (ATP) between 1992 and 1997 and co-founded the Joint Technology Partners incubator – a significant investor in Australian technology start-ups.
In 1993, some of the 65 companies in the TCG Group were publicly floated on the Australian Stock Exchange as TechComm Group Limited, later renamed Utility Computer Services (UXC). In 2016, UXC was acquired by CSC for $430 million. Another former TCG company floated on the New York Stock Exchange in November 1997 for US$600m (AU$1 billion), making it the largest technology company to be established in Australia until that time. Today the TCG companies, and entities with TCG roots, employ well over 6000 people with a turnover in excess of $1.5 billion annually.
Peter's innovative management style and corporate structuring has led to the creation of a business model which is being copied by many successful entrepreneurs, and has become part of university undergraduate and masters programs in business management in Australia and around the world.
Peter holds six degrees or professional qualifications, is an adjunct professor at the University of Technology Sydney and an honorary member of the Hungarian Academy of Engineering 1998. He is a fellow of the Australian Computer Society, the Institute of Engineers Australia, and the Australian Society of Accountants. His many awards include The Order of Australia in 1993 and the UTS Alumni Award for Excellence 2010. His books include 'The Possible Dream' (Penguin 1988),[3] 'Beyond "Yes"' (Harper Collins 1998),[4] "The Profit Principle" co-authored by Jeanne-Vida Douglas (John Wiley and Sons 2010)[5] and "Managing for Change" co-authored by Brad Howarth (TCG Publications 2014).[6]
Peter chairs the Australian Government Consultative Committee on Knowledge Capital[7][8] and serves on a number of private enterprise boards.[9] He represented Australia on the OECD Small Medium Size Enterprise committee and in other OECD forums.[10]
Peter Fritz is a Member of the Board of the Global Panel Foundation - Australasia - a respected non-government organisation (with offices and satellites in Berlin, Copenhagen, New York, Prague, Sydney and Toronto) that works behind the scenes in crisis areas around the world. The current Australasia Chair is the Rt. Hon. Don McKinnon, former Deputy Prime Minister of New Zealand and Commonwealth Secretary General, and the Vice Chair is Hon. Philip Ruddock.
Peter co-chaired the government-commissioned Working Group on Education and Training in Philanthropy and Social Investment (2007–2008) which led to the establishment of the Centre for Social Impact (CSI) in 2008, a national centre for philanthropy and social investment, with an Australian Government endowment of $12.4 million.[11] The CSI is a joint collaboration between the business schools of the University of New South Wales, Melbourne Business School, Swinburne University of Technology and the University of Western Australia and provides managerial education, executive support and research for the not-for-profit sector.
Peter was instrumental in the establishment of the OECD Working Group on SMEs (1993), Society for Knowledge Economics (2005), Australian Society for Progress and Wellbeing (2014), National Small Business Centre (1992), International Institute for Negotiation and Conflict Management (1996), and many others.
Peter is a regular blogger on the issues of innovation and entrepreneurship on Open Forum (Australia).[15] He is currently collaborating with privacy expert Malcolm Crompton and author Brad Howarth on a new book “A Vision for an Innovative Australia” based on interviews with eminent Australian and international thought leaders. The book explores what Australia’s core competencies are and is relevant for any government long-term planning.

- Son of Adalbert Fritz and Irma Bienenstock
- Husband of Katharina Éles and Jutka Szebényi
- Father of Peter Fritz and Anne Fritz
- His grandmother was the head of the family (Bienenstock). Apu got to know her
when they moved to Zám. - The house in Zám included a big shop, warehouses, bakery, distillery and orchard,
forests and many other things.14
-Zám was on the river Maros. It was the trading centre for 11 villages and the
surrounding forests. The main produce was walnuts, apples, plums, firewood.
These were taken to Arad on rafts.
-Their residence was behind the shop.
-When he moved there with his brother (Sandor) and mother (Irma ne Bienenstock)
his grandparents (Bienenstock) built a separate house for them.
-Apu’s brother went to school in Déva, so he was left with his mother. Her brother
was home during the summer.
-In those days the shop counted as a very big concern. The peasants shopped on
credit until the harvest was in, when they sold the wheat and pálinka.
-Apu’s life was wonderful.
-Apu’s mother was very ill after he was born, and was not able to nurse him properly.
-He was a very sickly child, so was rather spoilt.
T-here was also a copper mine in the area, where Italian prisoners of war worked.
The mine was managed by Apu’s grandmother’s cousin. The mine’s engineer lived
next door. He had a son called Pubi, because his wife was German. He was about
2-3 years older than Apu. They were friends.
-Apu’s grandmother had something wrong with her stomach, so they killed a small
chicken every day and Apu got one leg for himself.
-They were well to do and lived well. For example they imported oranges from Italy,
not to sell, but just for the family. His grandmother took him with her to Visonta for a health cure.
-When the revolution broke out on 4 November 1918, they took refuge in Arad. They
took a furnished room in an old house. His father was not back from the war yet. His
grandparents lived somewhere else.
-Apu said they had not a care in the world and their life was beautiful, they had a
great social life.
-Apu learned to play the piano, he started when he was 9, when he was 13 he got a
middle ear infection. He loved music, in school was the second best accompanist
on the piano – the one who was best later became a famous pianist and went to live
in Sweden. Apu also learnt to play the flute and played in the orchestra. He played
four handed on the piano with a friend who was 2 years older. Many young people
came to know the symphonies at their home. Apu’s school friends came over on
Sundays. Young teenagers, and they played music. They learned about Beethoven
symphonies.
-They were not very rich, but they always had enough to live comfortably. They had
dances, costume balls,
-Apu can still remember his grandmother dressed in a black dress with a white hand
embroidered shawl.
-The dining room and the sitting room was one big room.
-They had two servants in the house, and when Apu’s mother went to the market
one of them accompanied her to carry the basket.
-Apu went with his mother to the dressmaker, who made their suits and dresses, and
while his father was in his club, the two of them went to concerts.
-This comfortable life ended when Apu’s brother went to Reichenberg to the textile
institute. The value of the lei dropped against the Czech crown. They had to sell
-Apu’s mother’s really big earrings and the Bösendorfer piano.
-Apu was 21 years old when he noticed that the manager of the timber yard put
sizable amounts of money in his pocket, (from contractors). When he started
compulsory military service in 1933, the manager handed me 3,000.00 lei. At the 15 time my monthly salary was 200 lei. With this money I was able to bribe the military doctor, so I spent my military service in comfort.
When Apu’s father retired, his salary was enough to pay the rent on a four room
house, and there were only the three of them.
-He married his best friend George Eles’s sister Kato.
-As the second war broke out he was called into labour camp. His stay there was a
day and a half long. It would have been shorter, just the colonel commanding the
camp did not obey the Prime Ministers’ order to release Apu on the first telephone
call.
-He spent the war building his company.
-Before the Russian army liberated Arad the Hungarian army occupied the town.
-Within days the crematorium was erected. They fled towards the front. Eventually
they met the Russians.
-After the war business was very good until 1948 when the King was exiled and
everything was taken from them.
-In 1947 Ferry Imre’s (Apu’s cousin’s) was the one who arranged through his friend
-Dr. Emerick Barch (who worked as the editor of the Telegraph) and Sir Frank
Packer their entry permit to Australia.
-He migrated to Australia, arriving on the 5 th of February 1962.
-A visionary he built a reputation of great integrity and professionalism. With a strong
sense of who he was and ego that needed no externalities to validate his self. He
pioneered the Southern Highlands Wine growing industry first providing knowledge
and money to establish Joajia Vinery and then a much bigger operation at his farm
at Eling Forrest. Over a long life he quietly built the family’s reputation helping his
son in establishing many companies, some of global proportions.
-He was a happy man!!
