The #MadeInLCI talent shines at the Final Project Exhibition 2024
The exhibition, designed by faculty member Ana García, was hosted on the 6th floor of our new campus and included final projects from all the disciplines we offer.
On May 14th, as part of the prestigious LaSalle College Festival, the E24 event was held at the Pavilion of the Grand Quai du Port de Montréal. This key event aimed to showcase the final projects of our Fashion Marketing students, highlighting their creativity, innovation, and passion.
Among the many teams from the 2024 cohort, five were selected by Mathieu St-Arnaud, General Director of Mmode, based on specific evaluation criteria. Then, our five industry experts chose the project that inspired them the most to support in the competition.
During the event, the five teams presented their projects to the audience. A representative from each team was then invited on stage to answer a few questions from their assigned expert.
Thank you to our five experts for their dedication and collaboration in supporting the emerging talent:
Inder Bedi from BEDI Studios
Mayco Quiroz from Tenet Fintech
Melyssa Woods from Maison Lipari
Vanessa Lafon from Cirque du Soleil
