Sponsors
The mission of the Undergraduate Business Symposium is to connect students, faculty, and company representatives to foster professional development. Engaging students with company representatives in networking activities and encouraging growth to help understand corporate culture and current business practices are primary to accomplish this goal.
This year that goal has never been more important, and it would not be possible to accomplish without our engaging and dynamic employer sponsors.
Symposium Core Committee
The Undergraduate Business Symposium is fully run by a 13 member team consisting of UNC's most dedicated and top student leaders.
Planning Symposium is an extensive 9-month process that comes with many challenges and successes.
Company Sponsor Registration
UNC Kenan-Flagler’s Undergraduate Business Symposium is centered around connecting 400+ business-minded students and employers in a dynamic and interactive conference as we approach the next recruiting cycle.
