Campus2Market Discover
C2M Discover is a program designed to empower students across faculties at the beginning of their entrepreneurial and innovation journey, providing them with the confidence and knowledge necessary to propel their big ideas forward.
Throughout this extracurricular program, participants delve into an introduction to entrepreneurship and innovation concepts, learn to identify and match problems with solutions, articulate their business’s value proposition, grasp the fundamentals of human-centered design, and much more.
C2M Discover is offered on the UPEI campus during the fall and winter semester.
Pitch Battles
Pitch Battles is a 3-day pitch competition. Participants get teamed up with fellow UPEI and Holland College students to create a business idea and compelling pitch over the course of three days within a mystery theme that will be revealed at the start of the competition. Throughout the weekend, the teams will collaborate to refine their idea and prepare to pitch it at a public event in front of a panel of judges for a shot at monetary prizes!

Ecosystem Tours
Each fall and winter semester, the Catherine Callbeck Centre for Entrepreneurship offers an ecosystem tour to a select group of students. Ecosystem tours are in partnership with multiple community members and are meant to provide attending students with the opportunity to get a deep dive into a sector and learn about the entrepreneurs and supports that exist within the community. Each ecosystem tour is offered during the mid-semester break to allow students more scheduling freedom to attend without conflicting with their class schedules.
