The Summit Leaders program was founded 4 years ago in Toronto. Led by McKinsey consultants, the program now runs in all major Canadian cities. Under the program, UBC graduate student mentors are working along side McKinsey consultants to support teams of high school students to build lifelong networking, business, and teamwork skills as they take a business idea and develop a viable business plan.
