Maplewood Academy Joins Oxford Business Network in Canada

On June 17th, 2024, Maplewood Academy proudly participated in the Oxford Business School Alumni Event, hosted at 111 Richmond Street West in downtown Toronto. The gathering brought together Oxford Saïd alumni, Canadian business leaders, and institutional partners for an evening of insightful discussion, networking, and thought leadership.

Maplewood Academy was pleased to support the event as an official sponsor, with Dr. Anlong Jiang, Academic Principal, serving as one of the evening’s featured guest speakers.

Dr. Jiang on the Future of Leadership and Learning

In his keynote address, “From Classroom to Boardroom: Redefining the Leadership Pipeline,” Dr. Jiang explored the intersection of education and global leadership. He spoke passionately about the importance of preparing students for an uncertain future through critical thinking, ethical reasoning, and entrepreneurial learning, all of which are pillars of the Maplewood experience.

“The habits of mind that shape great business leaders—adaptability, integrity, and innovation—must be cultivated well before university,” said Dr. Jiang. “At Maplewood, we build that foundation early.”

Maplewood’s Expanding Global Reach

Maplewood’s involvement in this prestigious event reflects the school’s growing role on the international stage and its dedication to bridging education and industry. Through partnerships, sponsorships, and thought leadership, the Academy continues to promote future-focused learning rooted in global relevance.

Following the main program, guests attended a networking reception where Maplewood was recognized for its leadership in entrepreneurial education and academic innovation.
