EXCLUSIVE SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITES

The Schulich International Case Competition (SICC) is Back!

Now in its seventh year, SICC continues to gain international acclaim, creating a powerful platform for sponsors to deliver high prestige brand affiliation to an exclusive audience:

Over 60+ MBA level participants from around the world Judging panel of 30+ mining industry leaders

The 2019 Schulich International Case Competition seeks to bring together, undergraduate and masters’ level students, along mining industry leaders to stimulate discussion on the social, environmental and political complexities that face the industry today.

With support from Schulich’s Global Mining Management program (GMM), SICC is focused specifically on responsible mining, providing a unique opportunity for sponsors to illustrate their commitment to driving the industry forward through innovation, sustainable mining and the education of future industry leaders.

New this year and in partnership with Net Impact Schulich, SICC will be hosting an industry fair during the competition- Mining: Think Bigger. We are excited to partner with a variety of companies from progressive start-ups to industry leaders across the mining innovation community.
