Canada's longest running and most prestigious Real Estate Case Competition
Developers’ Den, the Schulich Real Estate Case Competition presented by Schulich’s Brookfield Centre in Real Estate & Infrastructure and the Schulich Real Property Alumni Association, is now in its 15th year.
Teams from top graduate business schools in Canada and the US will participate in an intense one-day case competition where the best and brightest real estate students will showcase their skills before a panel of judges made up of industry leaders, investors, and executives.
The event will be hosted at the Downtown Toronto offices of our industry partners, DIALOG and BDP Quadrangle.
We look forward to welcoming current and future real estate leaders for this prestigious event on Friday, March 28, 2025.
