who are we

Who are we?

We are the Gina Cody School Entrepreneurship Society (GCES), an engineering & computer science student association led by more than a dozen dedicated and passionate like-minded individuals. We have been growing since 2020, hosting online and in person events, workshops, panels and more to help Engineering and computer science students gain entrepreneurial skills and opportunities.

Every year we host UpStart, an inter-university entrepreneurship competition at Concordia University where students come to learn new skills and put their entrepreneurial strategies to the test.
