If you are interested in learning more about the contributions public-private partnerships (P3s) have made to western Canada’s infrastructure and economy, meet students from different disciplines related to P3, hear about the latest developments and network with industry professionals, then you should apply now. Limited spots are still available.

The Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships (CCPPP) is inviting university and college students located in western Canada to apply to attend the Western Canada Student Summit on P3 to be held in Vancouver on March 6-7, 2014.

This leading edge event will take place at the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia. This is a limited enrolment event which will accept a maximum of 50 students. Students will be selected from upper year undergraduate and graduate programs from western Canadian universities and colleges. P3 related disciplines which will be considered include finance, engineering, business, law, public administration, economics, political science, planning and construction management.

To ensure a broad range of representation of students from all relevant disciplines and western Canadian academic institutions, applicants will be evaluated based on the quality and thoroughness of their application. An academic reference will be required. Subsidies will be made available to qualified candidates attending from outside of the Vancouver area.

Please fill out the application form and submit to Christian Bauer at cbauer@pppcouncil.ca.
