Awards have been made available through an endowment established by Simon Seshadri (B.Com. 1988, M.B.A.) for Bachelor of Commerce students who demonstrate financial need and an interest in Marketing. Preference will be given to students who graduated from a secondary school in British Columbia. While a student at UBC, Simon served as the AMS President and as a student representative on the University’s Board of Governors. Since UBC, Simon has held international marketing roles with GE Healthcare and Bausch + Lomb, Philips Consumer Lifestyle in Japan and North America, Boots Healthcare in the United Kingdom and Japan, and as Senior Vice President of Global Marketing and Lifecycle Management at CooperVision. Simon is proud to establish this award to recognize the profound impact that his UBC education and experience have had on his life and his career, and is excited to support students who share his passion for marketing and who will benefit from financial assistance.
