Welcome
The Ted Rogers Management Conference is thrilled to celebrate its 16th year of cultivating the next generation of leaders. Together, we honour the unique journeys and achievements of everyone who has passed through TRMC’s doors, creating a legacy of growth, resilience, and innovation. We gather to recognize the distinct stories that have shaped this conference over the years, and we invite each of you to contribute your own narrative to this ongoing journey of leadership.
For me, this journey has been truly transformative. I began as a delegate, inspired by the people I met and the experiences I gained. Today, as Chair of this conference, I am both grateful and honoured to give back to a community that has defined my university experience. TRMC has always been about pushing boundaries, and I encourage each of you to fully immerse yourself, learning not only from industry experts but from each other.
This year, we bring a blend of TRMC’s classic events—our renowned case competition, valuable networking sessions—with new additions designed to deepen connections and inspire growth. With over 150 delegates and numerous industry professionals, each of you brings a unique perspective and a vision for success. As you participate, I urge you to consider: What does success look like to you? How will you carry these lessons forward?
As I reflect on my own journey, I hope you’ll take a moment to think about yours—where you’ve been, the goals you’ve set, and the future you envision. The conference is a space to push your limits, broaden your horizons, and create lifelong memories.
In that spirit, let us begin TRMC 2025 with a commitment to capturing our unique paths—each a portrait of success in its own right.
Warm regards,
Raza Durrani
