It has been an absolute pleasure to work with you and your team and the students. Every interaction with you was professional, very organized and I was excited about all of the prospects. You organized the course work and the students in a way that made it easy to interact with. The meetings were very well organized. The technology was really good and getting into groups with the students was really good. So, I want to commend you for your work. I believe that the students have had an incredible experience with you as a professor, and that after taking the class and being able to work with some industry leaders, they have such a great leg up on other students that only did class work. So, my hat off to you. THANK YOU! So, from my perspective, the student groups we worked with were incredible. I was very impressed at the level of detail that they provided for the campaigns. They absolutely studied everything and were able to help us set it all up. Way to go! From beginning on, the expectations were really clearly spelled out, including all the time frames and due dates. As I mentioned, the technology worked great when we had the meetings with the students. I just wish that more startups would be able to experience this and be able to move forward much faster than trying to do it all by themselves.

I think the program went ok, but in the end, as a company, we did not really see any benefit. For us, it was about getting some market research done, but what we got from the project was not really suited to the company. Hopefully the students found the project worthwhile and were able to learn.

Sasha has been very helpful and forthcoming with info on the project. This was our first time using Riipen and to be honest, we had no clue what to expect or what to do. Despite the fact that we were very disorganized at the beginning of the project, the students have been patient and have asked many questions and the results were surprisingly insightful and some of the reports we got felt like they were written by professionals. The teacher recorded the presentations because we couldn't attend and provided us with 5 different marketing reports for our business (almost 150 pages for us to read!). It was interesting to see different strategies and points of view from different teams and we will definitely use some of these to grow our little business into something amazing! Thanks again, we hope to be able to collaborate again in the future.

It was a pleasant experience working with UCW and a group of highly energetic MBA students. They did quality research and gave me the latest market trends. They also offered their perspectives on my venture, which allowed me to address some of the blind spots of my operation. Professor Sasha also ran the course well in terms of the usage of my time and my participation in the course.

Professor Kiran Thakur guided the student groups to create some of the most insightful recruitment, selection, engagement and retention reports tailored exactly to our company's needs. Many aha moments and some very interesting analyses and recommendation that will be executed on. UCW again didn't fail to impress with some of the best international students in the marketplace. Canada will be the beneficiary if these students become citizens some day and UCW has given them a leg up in this journey to be marketable MBAs and HR professionals. Excellent job Professor and Students. Thank you.

They have been very proactive and they lead how to operate in groups. Students were curious about what we do and then start doing concrete research on how we can improve our Business. They found pain points and gave us some alternatives to solve them. Students have been working in different groups, and each of them chooses a different angle to provide solutions. They are quick learners and kindly communicate with us. We do recommend working with UWC as you can give space to iterate so they can provide unique insights. The Project leader (Professor) was engaged, he was helping us to have a good operating project and put in place effective tools to work with students. Deadlines and time management were very well handled. Overall, we had a good experience working with UWC.

The reports and presentations provided by the teams were concise and clear, and the summary meeting with the course instructor was also very helpful in completing a plan for my company.

NURO had an excellent collaboration with 26 University Canada West MBA students and their professor allowing us to identify new key data for the international commercialization of our non-invasive product line for Communication and Computing by Brain. All projects were delivered on-time, were rich in content and created important exchanges between the MBA students and ourselves which will lead to further contributions by some of these students in our journey. This fruitful interaction has been highly appreciated and the NURO Team looks forward to continuing this relationship with University Canada West in the future. Thank you all !...

This school, based on the results of its students, teaches all the necessary elements of successful marketing tools. While each individual student and team performed differently, I can say that the top performers were given what they needed to succeed. I did not have much communication with the professor once the project kicked off but did interact with the students, quite successfully.
