Who We Are
We are students who believe that entrepreneurial action matched with sustainable business practices can empower our Greater Vancouver community, and communities around the world. With the mentorship of faculty advisors and industry professionals, Enactus BCIT members devote themselves to developing and implementing unique programs that benefit local and global communities.
Enactus, which stands for “Entrepreneurial Action in Us”, established in 1975, has built the largest global business and higher education networks in the world, impacting over 115 countries worldwide. This international, non-profit organization brings together the drive of post-secondary students and knowledge of professional educators and leaders to create entrepreneurial solutions to economic, social, and environmental problems.
Enactus BCIT is comprised of many dedicated students from a variety of disciplines who not only excel in their studies, but who also find time to volunteer on campus and within the community.
By finding a need, perfecting an approach and creating a sustainable community outreach project, Enactus BCIT is dedicated to bettering our community. Each project aims to make a positive economic, environmental, and social impact.
