Dear Potential Sponsor,

The annual Workplace Skills Conference is an exclusive
opportunity for you to showcase your company as a top
business leader to 300 new Bachelor of Commerce
students at the Gustavson School of Business, while
empowering young business leaders.
This conference component of the third-year business
program allows students the opportunity to connect with
top local and global companies and better understand
the transition to workplace environments, while building
the essential skills for their personal and professional
success.

This conference will showcase the changing business

world and how students can prepare for and shape the
future.
The conference features our traditional networking
luncheon, as well as diverse workshop sessions, keynote
speakers and networking breaks.
We are excited for this opportunity to invite you to
network and build relationships with the students of
Gustavson our future business leaders.

The theme of the Workplace Skills Conference this year

is Future of Business. The conference will highlight the
concept of a business degree as an opportunity for
growth and discovery not merely a means to an end.

The Gustavson School of Business is committed to providing our students

with the necessary skills for success and building our relationship with the
business community. Please feel free to contact us if you would like more
