Our Global Enterprise Experience sponsors are:
Victoria University of Wellington www.wgtn.ac.nz
Victoria University of Wellington has hosted the Global Enterprise Experience since it began in 2004, and sponsors the Victoria University of Wellington Champion Global Team award for the contest. Victoria is the principal university in New Zealand's characterful capital city, Wellington. Lonely Planet described Wellington as the "world's coolest capital city". The university's core mission is the cultivation of creative capital - the capacity of individuals and communities to imagine and express new possibilities through creative activity. This is the genius behind art, music and writing. It is also the curiosity and insight that finds new solutions to complex social and environmental issues. It is the entrepreneurship that establishes new businesses. It is leadership, innovation and inspiration.
