Our annual Business Studies Student Convention, live from the Gaumont Theatre in Disney Village, gives students the  opportunity to rub shoulders with business leaders, learn real-life case studies they can use in their studies and gain tips to kickstart their future careers.

The convention is designed to inspire and educate the next generation of business leaders and provides real-life insights from business speakers that complement the curriculum. Expect topics including marketing, human resource management and finance to be covered at the convention with speakers representing entrepreneurs and well-known brands.

Meet the speakers

  • Nick Webb, Partnerships Manager for Disney Parks & Resorts – using partnerships and social media influencers to market Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida
  • Michelle Feeney, CEO of Floral Street Perfume – entrepreneurship case study on how she set up a sustainable and eco-friendly fragrance business
  • Tom Nelson, Senior Digital & Ecommerce Manager, The Walt Disney Company – how Disney uses digital marketing to engage customers to consider a Disney holiday
  • Craig Busby, lecturer in Business Studies – will facilitate the event and summarise topics covered by the speakers to draw links to the curriculum

Included in the convention package is a 2-day hopper pass for both Disney® Parks so that students can collect the evidence required to complete their business assignments.

After the convention, students will head to the parks to experience Disney’s unique brand of customer experience and will be tasked with viewing the park through an analytical lens by completing a choice of business assignments relating directly to the business of Disneyland Paris.
