BUSINESS VALUATION CHALLENGE 2022

SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITY

We are pleased to announce the 2022 Business Valuation Challenge, a national business valuation case competition for undergraduate university students from 20 prominent business schools across Canada. The Challenge will be taking place on November 17 and 18, 2022.

If your company is looking to build its CBV talent pipeline,
you will want to partner with us.

As the BV Challenge is the first of its kind in Canada, there is every reason to believe the uptake by university students will be very strong. As a result, there will be many opportunities for sponsor firms to promote their brand. Additionally, the event will provide a forum for prospective CBVs to network with, learn from, and possibly match with potential CBV employers.

If your firm is interested in sponsoring BV Challenge, please email bvchallenge@cbvinstitute.com.

ABOUT THE BV CHALLENGE

On November 17 and 18, teams comprised of two to four individuals will be given the opportunity to compete with students from other universities in a test of their business valuation skills. The winning team will be awarded $10,000. Second and third place will receive $5,000 and $2,500, respectively.

On the afternoon of November 18, once final presentations have been made and a winning team has been announced, we will be hosting a networking and career fair for students to meet with potential future employers.
