Proof Innovation Starts on Campus

It started with a $75 glass cutter in a UBC dorm room. Two students turned a thrown-away bottle into Mosa — a company now making corporate branding merchandise for the FIFA World Cup, coming to Vancouver. This is the kind of innovation your students will find in Canada. Not just a lecture about entrepreneurship — proof of it, on campus.

Ateneo de Manila

Partner School

"Our students return with broader perspectives, stronger leadership, and a deeper sense of purpose."

Ari Tanglao

Ateneo High School, Canadian Global Experience

"Two weeks is such a short span of time but it can be life-changing. In that limited amount of time, we were able to learn so much about caring for nature and the resources we have been blessed with. The future is in our hands, and we, the youth, have the power to make a change — we learned life skills and a lot about leadership and sustainability."
