Rotman School of Management: Nexus for non-profits

Posted on October 5th, 2006 by Sacha Chua

Ushnish Sengupta told me about
Nexus, the Rotman School of
Management’s initiative for providing low-cost services to non-profit
organizations. Already in its second year of operation, Nexus has
helped many non-profits through affordable management consulting and
other services provided by MBA students and a network of mentors.

I’m glad to see that Rotman (part of the University of Toronto) is
doing cool things like that. It’s a great way for students to gain
real-world experience, and it should be fun getting to know the people
in the program.
