The inaugural Dr. Donald M. Leishman Convention Experience provided an opportunity for five students from across Canada to attend the annual PDAC Convention for the very first time. The students stayed at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel where they were a short walk to the PDAC Convention hosted at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.

During the convention the students not only explored the Trade Show & Investors Exchange with their complimentary All Access Pass, they attended numerous ticketed and private networking events. These included: 

  • S-IMEW Alumni Reception
  • PDAC Annual General Meeting
  • Awards Gala
  • Student-Industry Mixer
  • Lunch with the Leishman family
  • New Member Reception
  • And MUCH more!
