Hi CBU STUDENTS:
Let’s Show Our Entrepreneurship and Community Contribution Around Us!

Or show some non-profit organizations, social enterprises, and cooperatives in their hometown or in Canada, and tell us how they contribute to the local communities. And a description of less than 100 words. And then send them to
❤️cbu.iec@gmail.com❤️

★Collecting photos and stories time: June 22nd – June 29th
★We will upload all photos and stories on our Facebook (🔥CBU Innovation and Entrepreneurship Centre) on June 30th.
★The likes collection time: June 30th – July 6th, and the winner who get the most likes will be announced on July 7th.

There is an event “SIDE HUSTLE ENTREPRENEURSHIP” in collaboration with CEED and CBU Innovation & Entrepreneurship Centre on Thursday, June 22nd 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM at 37 Nepean St Suite 103. It is the last day to register for this event! We are looking forward to seeing you there!

Networking and connecting with like-minded individuals who share our aspirations can provide us with a supportive community where we can exchange ideas, collaborate, and learn from each other. Surrounding ourselves with people who have similar goals and ambitions can inspire us and offer opportunities for partnerships, mentorship, and mutual growth. So, let’s embrace the power of learning from successful entrepreneurs, engaging in meaningful conversations, and fostering connections that can empower us to transform our dreams into reality.

Thank you for joining us in August for a sharing session on the experiences of outstanding MBA graduates.
