In June the Conrad School hosted the latest ConradConnect Live event, this time at the Ryerson DMZ in downtown Toronto. ConradConnect Live is an opportunity for the Conrad School to host our students and alumni in a casual environment to network with each other, Conrad School faculty and staff, and community members. 

This month, Enterprise Co-op students pitched for five prizes of $5,000 at the Ignition Week pitch competition. Each competing student had five minutes to pitch their venture to a panel of judges, followed by a three-minute question period. Meet the Spring 2018 pitch winners!

Hult Prize Waterloo Teams Update

Waterloo Hult Teams have travelled to Quito, Melbourne and Toronto to compete in Hult Prize 2018 Regional competitions. Here’s a quick update, from the teams themselves (in their own words), on how they did, and what’s next.

The Hult Prize is the largest start-up program in the world for early-stage social ventures, and once again, Waterloo student teams are advancing to regional competitions. Their challenge: build a scalable, sustainable social enterprise that harnesses the power of energy to transform the lives of 10 million people by 2025.

This term, the Conrad Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology Centre at the University of Waterloo launched the Minor in Entrepreneurship, a cross-campus minor that combines relevant and dynamic Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology (BET) courses with real-world entrepreneurship experience.

It is with great pleasure that the Conrad Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology Centre announces the appointment of Nada Basir to our faculty. We are thrilled to welcome Nada to Conrad as we expand our undergraduate programming to include the cross-campus Minor in Entrepreneurship.
