Enhance was originally created in 2020 by a group of passionate high school students ini was originally created in 2020 by a group of passionate high school students in the Vancouver Lower Mainland area who saw the potential for real, innovative change in the high school business landscape. Their vision was to create a unique case competition that would empower students with practical business experience, foster creativity, and equip them with essential problem-solving skills. Unfortunately, just as Enhance was starting to gain momentum, the global pandemic struck, forcing the team to put their plans on hold. The initiative was temporarily shut down, and it seemed as though Enhance might become just another great idea lost to the challenges of an unprecedented time. However, in 2024, a resilient new student and executive team reignited Enhance with renewed vigor. They recognized the value that Enhance could bring to the high school business community and worked tirelessly to bring it back to life. Their hard work paid off, and in 2024, Enhance saw its first successful iteration, making a significant mark on Vancouver’s high school business competition scene. The success of this relaunch affirmed the potential of the competition and set a strong foundation for future growth. Now in its second iteration, Enhance has become a well-known and respected high school business case competition across Vancouver. The competition continues to attract ambitious students, providing a platform for young leaders to showcase their ideas and tackle real-world business challenges. Enhance’s journey from a pandemic shutdown to a thriving event is a testament to the power of resilience, dedication, and a commitment to create lasting change.
About the speaker A sophomore student at St. George's School, Shuyou is excited to be organizing Enhance 2025 as the Director of Sponsorship. Shuyou is interested in the role of business and finance in politics and international relations; his passion for business led him to participate in Enhance 2024 with the goal of developing his analytical and communication skills. Shuyou especially valued the unique experience of developing presentations with his friends during a time crunch. Shuyou looks forward to creating meaningful and beneficial sponsorships to make Enhance 2025 even better than before. In his spare time, Shuyou enjoys reading, playing soccer, and video games with his friends. Shuyou wishes all attendees good luck at Enhance 2025! |
