Do you have the incubation intuition?
For the 6th edition of the entrepreneurial Day that will be held on January 26th, the Centre d’entrepreneurship HEC-POLY-UdeM invites students, faculty and staff on campus interested in entrepreneurship to share their business ideas with the team. Three information kiosks will be held simultaneously:
At HEC Montreal, Ground garden, 11h to 16h
At the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, Home National Bank, second floor of the main building, from 10h to 14h
At the University of Montreal, the second floor of the Jean-Brilliant near the cafeteria, from 11h to 13h.
Debate FOR / AGAINST increasing tuition fees
The campaign for / against the strike has already begun even though the debate on increasing tuition fees seems to escape from students. The debate for / against the increase in tuition between the University of Montreal students aims to enable students to take back the arguments and make visible a debate that is too often happening in a closed circuit (within student associations or in media where people take ownership of the students point of the views).
Students from different student associations would organize it. The sociology students association of University of Montreal felt that they should work on a partnership with the HEC Montreal graduate students associations to give the image of an unbiased debate and get the support from a maximum of other student associations. However, the idea is not to organize a debate between HEC Montreal that would support a position vs. social studies departments that would support the other. The debate is for / against, no matters the student discipline of study.
Media (eg, CISM student radio and the Montreal press) would be invited for the occasion in addition to the large invitation to students and professors from the University of Montreal. The activity would take place in an amphitheater at the University of Montreal. Schedule: in February 2012.
If you would be interested to participate in this activity, please send a note to Jean-Nicolas Denis (president©hecaemba•org) before the end of January.
