The HEC Montréal delegation took 2nd place overall in the Jeux du Commerce and ended up on the first two steps of the podium for the 11th time in a row. The 37th edition of this competition, which was held from January 10 to 13, 2025 at Université Laval, gathered more than 1,000 participants from 13 eastern Canadian universities.
