MBA Games

The BC MBA Games and National MBA Games are annual competitions that bring together MBA students from across the province and country for dynamic three-day events combining academic case challenges, athletic competitions, and spirited team-building activities. These events offer students the opportunity to showcase leadership, strategic thinking, and collaboration while building lasting connections with peers and industry professionals.

B.C. MBA Games

The B.C.

More than just a competition, the Games foster leadership, collaboration, and innovation, offering participants the chance to apply their skills in high-stakes scenarios while building lasting connections with peers and industry professionals.
