"In order for Canada to succeed in today's competitive global economy we need individuals with the global skills, perspectives, networks and ideas capable of excelling in a rapidly changing marketplace. For 50 years, AIESEC has bolstered the competitiveness of Canadian companies by providing access to talented young leaders with the ambition and skills necessary to drive innovation in their workplace. I participated in AIESEC's Global Internship Program after graduating and it helped launch my international business career!"

"In our experience AIESEC students possess exactly the qualities we are looking for: international and intercultural awareness, integrity, intuition and communication skills.

"For more than thirty years, PricewaterhouseCoopers has been a proud supporter of AIESEC. At present, PricewaterhouseCoopers’ partnership with AIESEC involves over 50 territories and is constantly proving successful. Leading in our business means being able to foster positive change by managing complex situations on a global scale. In order to achieve this, we need to be able to reach a high level of understanding of the complexity of the external environment and succeed in operating out of the normal comfort zone. For this we need young people and AIESEC unites a global network of talented and innovative, young people who strive to make a positive contribution to the world celebrating cultural diversity, leadership and teamwork. On behalf of the partners of PricewaterhouseCoopers I am honoured to endorse AIESEC’s vision of 'peace and fulfilment of mankind's potential'.

"In the past few years, we have witnessed an incredible globalization of the market and mentalities. This trend has been breaking down boundaries and making international cooperation more important than ever. AIESEC encourages and facilitates this trend by bringing young people together, preventing prejudice and fostering an international mentality."
Klaus Schwab
"In order for Canada to be a successful competitive nation, we have to develop individuals who are highly flexible, skilled, knowledgeable and fully accountable contributors to the needs of their society. We believe that AIESEC Canada's activities and programs are helping to develop these individuals."
