ABOUT US
PROSPER VANCOUVER
Prosper’s mission has always been to redefine business case competitions. For its eighth iteration, Prosper continues to set the standard for the world of business case competitions. Not only do we maintain the goal held by all to connect driven business enthusiasts in a competitive environment, but we also aim to be an empowering experience for high school students to delve into different fields of business and find their passions, regardless of their caliber to compete. Held for approximately 500+ high school students across Canada and around the world, Prosper facilitates a community of learning through our interactive workshops held by renowned business professionals that are catered to students who wish to simply learn in a conference-like fashion, and learners who want to apply their knowledge in an intensive business simulation. Led by an accomplished team of high school students, Prosper is so proud to share its vision with like-minded individuals, and elevate what business case competitions can offer.
Dear Sponsor Teachers, Prospective Attendees, and Notable Guests,
I am thrilled to welcome you to the eighth iteration of Prosper Vancouver, Canada’s premier youth business conference. My name is Ryan Guerville and I am deeply honoured to be serving as Chair for Prosper 2025. On behalf of our Executive Team and the Board of Directors, It is my pleasure to extend you an invitation to join us this year at Prosper, which will be held on April 26-27, 2025, at the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre.
Here at Prosper, our founding mission and long-standing goal is to redefine what a case competition can be. To spearhead change and pursue innovation, replicates a core principle of the business world, which is what we pursue in the landscape of case competitions. Prosper is unlike any other youth business conference. We offer grandiose prizes, stellar workshops, and a competition thrill like no other. However, what stands out is truly the experience that each attendee takes away from our conference. Any student that enters one of our events, comes out with more than just an insightful outlook on the business world. They come out with newly formed skills, meaningful connections, unforgettable moments, but most importantly, they take one step further into realizing their potential.
​
Each eventful aspect of Prosper is meant to push attendees out of their comfort zone, challenging their limits and ultimately driving their growth. We aim to offer attendees a conference experience like no other, and Prosper this year will accommodate this to the fullest degree. We aim to create an environment where creativity, innovation, and business acumen will be put to the test; as well as offering dedicated business streams, tailoring the conference experience to the specific interests of each attendee, with corresponding activities and workshops in each stream. This experience is facilitated by world-class speakers, industry professionals, adept volunteers, and most importantly, our Executive Team and Board of Directors. Our team of extraordinary individuals who share the vision of our foundation, wished to contribute to something greater than themselves, and work tirelessly throughout the year to bring together a conference experience that pushes the limits of possibilities within a case competition. Through this, we truly hope to impact the lives of the like-minded individuals that attend our conference, while creating future business leaders alike. ​
