This year’s event took place Dec. 1 to Dec. 2 at the Sheraton Centre in downtown Toronto and included 12 colleges from across Ontario. The event’s host, Seneca College, proudly took home gold, with Algonquin College and Niagara College tying for an impressive second place.

The two-day competition, sponsored by Scotiabank, is a showcase of more than 250 of the province’s top marketing students and future business leaders who compete in events that test their marketing expertise in a variety of categories including market research, integrated marketing communications, direct marketing, retail marketing, international marketing, advanced marketing strategy and more.

Three of the 20 students will move on to the Scotiabank Vanier College – National Marketing Case Competition taking place from March 3 to March 5 in Montreal.  

The College would also like to recognize the hard work and dedication of the 12 full-time and part-time faculty, as well as OCMC alumni, who provided coaching support for the competition.
