Vibrant Communities [Campus Edition] at Doane Grant Thornton

">

Join us at the Emera Innovation Exchange on February 10 for an evening of connection, leadership, and impact!

This event is open to business students currently attending Memorial University in St. John's, Newfoundland.

Vibrant Communities is an interactive experience designed to spark meaningful conversations about the future of our communities and the power of individual commitments to create collective impact. Originally launched to unite local leaders and changemakers in communities across Canada, we’re excited to bring this initiative to university campuses to inspire the next generation of leaders.

University is more than academics. It’s where students learn to lead, collaborate, and build networks that shape their future. Vibrant Communities will help students strengthen these essential skills by exploring the meaning of community and their role within it. Students are already part of communities, such as clubs, sports teams, academic programs, and social circles.

• Make meaningful connections: Meet peers, professionals, and inspiring community leaders.
• Build skills for life, all in one event: Collaboration, leadership, and communication.
• Get inspired: Hear real stories of impact and discover how you can make a difference.
• Have fun: Live DJ, mocktail bar, experiential activations, and gift bags.

• Interactive activities: Hands-on sessions designed to spark conversation.
• Breakout discussion: Small group engagement with peers and professionals.
• Inspirational talks: Hear from community leaders and alumni.
• Dinner reception: Enjoy great food and networking opportunities.
