BizSphere

BizSphere is an exciting networking event designed to bring together BCom students, student group members, and accomplished alumni to form meaningful connections and shared expertise in a collaborative space. Students will have the opportunity to ask recent BCom graduates about the industry, recruitment process, and other tips after graduation.

Each BizSphere event takes place in BUS 4-06, from 12:30-2:00 PM and will start with a brief introduction of alumni, tailored to BCom undergrad students and their career journey, followed by a roundtable style networking session, where alumni will rotate tables in 12-15 minute intervals, allowing students the opportunity to have 1:1 conversations and ask targeted questions.
