Lazaridis Students’ Society

We are a student-led organization based out of the Lazaridis School of Business and Economics at Wilfrid Laurier University. Our mission is to empower our members to build e-commerce expertise and achieve their personal and professional goals.

ECL is your #1 community for all things e-commerce.
Our podcast E-Comversations invites industry experts and entrepreneurs from different areas of the e-commerce industry with a goal of educating students about the various careers available in e-commerce while also offering advice on how to explore those fields and develop must-learn skills.

Our Blog Insights are formed by a collaborative community of students dedicated to sharing everything from e-commerce industry trends and case studies to marketing, and more.

ECL hosts a variety of events that open the doors to a career in e-commerce. Our flagship events include case competitions, pitch competitions and more. Additionally, ECL hosts workshops that allow students to learn about e-commerce and connect with individuals working in the field. If you are passionate about e-commerce or just want to explore your curiosity about the space, join us at one of our events or workshops!

The executive team is primarily composed of Business Administration (BBA) students. First-year students will also have a chance to become executives through the First Year Representative Rotational Program.

Students can become a general member by filling out the form listed below. Membership is open to all Laurier students but all members MUST attend at least 2 workshops and 1 flagship event to validate involvement for the Laurier Experience Record (LER).
