Delegates

Last year’s participants primarily included undergraduate business students from VIU, as well as students from other disciplines. There were also several delegates from other universities in B.C. We also had several out of province delegates. This year we are aiming to expand our demographics in hopes to achieve a 15% increase in students from across Canada. Our goal is to attract 110 students to attend this conference in Nanaimo for a life-changing three day experience.

 

About the Organizers

The Vancouver Island University Business Students’ Association (VIUBSA) is a group of motivated and enthusiastic business students who work together to develop their education. The VILC is a highlight in out-of-the-classroom learning for the VIUBSA. Through guest speakers, networking opportunities, and educational seminars, the VIUBSA aims to encourage leadership. We are working hard to connect, and network more with businesses in Nanaimo to establish long lasting relationships.
