Expand The Circle


Here’s what college administrators and students have to say about MainEvent™:

"Just wanted to tell you - YOU ROCK! What an experience! MainEvent™ is an invaluable source of inspiration and content. I found so many different portions I can build into our career development programming here."
—Jackie A. Wilbur, Director, MBA Career Development, MIT Sloan School of Management

"An experience that will last me a lifetime. I can really look forward to my career now."
-Student, Southeastern Community College, Whiteville, North Carolina

"Students rose to the challenge and found the event helped them in their coursework as well as enhanced their knowledge on general business subjects. As such, we intend to establish that MainEvent become an annual activity, as it will help students and faculty alike. MainEvent proved to be a rewarding experience for all the students that participated from Les Roches."
-Dimitrious Diamantis, PHD Les Roches University (Switzerland)

"Extremely inspiring! There were many messages that I can take away with me and use in a positive manner in the workplace."
-Student, London Business School

"We’ve had some great individual success stories as a result of offering MainEvent™ on our campus. One student was motivated to seek a new direction in her life by taking ideas and contacts originating from MainEvent™ and reaching out to local businesses. As a result, she was offered not one job, but three!"
-Dr. Roger Pae, Professor and Director of Students in Free Enterprise Program, Cuyahoga Community College
