Meet the OC
The GNCTR 2025 Organizing Committee (OC) consists of alumni from a number of universities across Canada, each of which have participated in GNCTR at some point throughout their university experience. Our members have a wide range of professional, academic, and extracurricular experiences, but we all share a passion for continuing the legacy of GNCTR. This annual competition has brought us not only professional experience, but also lifelong memories and friends.
We are incredibly proud and excited to have the opportunity to organize GNCTR 2025 and to share our beautiful city of Montréal with you!
