Thank you SAF for the overwhelming interest for the hEDGE BMO Kick-Off! Due to the number of registrations already received and the limited capacity of our event, we will be screening the applications. To allow for enough time for the screening process, hEDGE will be moving up the application deadline to May 9th, 11:59pm. Successful candidates will be contacted by email in mid-May.
Please note that due to the nature of this event, preference will be given to upper years and those who have demonstrated an interest in finance and the capital markets during the screening process .
Any questions can be directed to info@hedgeconference.ca.
Thank you!
