“Whether you intend to open a new
business immediately upon
graduation, or plan to work within a
large corporation for the next 20
years, the entrepreneurship program
will provide you with the tools to excel
in your chosen career.” - Gillian Clune,
Graduate
•
"The Entrepreneurship Program is
exceptional. I entered the program
intent on starting my own business
immediately after graduation. What I
left with was an understanding that
entrepreneurship is not limited to selfemployment, but is the attitude that
growing companies are seeking in an
employee. Now I have tools for both!“ Kim Alke, Graduate

Marketing Management - Entrepreneurship grad Adrian Duke
knows a thing or two about building solid working
relationships. During his final year in the diploma program,
Adrian and his team of colleagues undertook a practicum
project for Make It Business, a local bimonthly publication for
small business owners and the entrepreneurially-minded.
The BCIT student team was tasked with developing a national
expansion plan for the publication, to be implemented in the
fall of 2010. Not only did the owners and publishers at Make It
Business like what the team recommended, they liked Adrian’s
working style and positive outlook so much that they tapped
him to lead their sales and marketing efforts, including the
national expansion, as their marketing specialist.
After graduating from his program in June 2009, Adrian, who
was also a participant in the Ch'nook Scholars program, took
on the exciting new role full-time. He now dedicates himself to
promoting the publication to potential advertisers, subscribers,
and small business owners. Make It Business is currently
expanding their resource base for small business owners,
starting with the launch of an innovative new book club.
Designed to facilitate discussion, relationship building, and
resource sharing amongst the small business community, the
book club will review selected business books with a facilitator
once per month. Meetings will take place at various Blenz
coffee house locations around the Lower Mainland.
Adrian credits his mentors, BCIT Entrepreneurship program
head Rick Kroetch, Make It Business president Josh Chicher
and publisher Victor Chew Wong, for his success in his career
thus far. He looks forward to the continual development and
challenges at Make It Business, including plans to relocate to
Toronto to lead the national expansion in 2010.
