UPEI Business Society Luncheon celebrates alumnus success

| News

Trent Henry, UPEI Alumnus and current Canadian chairman and CEO of Ernst & Young LLP, delivered the keynote address during UPEI's 35th annual Business Society Luncheon on March 2.

Henry intrigued the audience of students, community leaders, and the Island business community, as he mentioned the changing economy and today's trends, as well as his pride in UPEI and its alumni.

Henry was born in Charlottetown and earned his bachelor of business administration from UPEI in 1989. He still credits much of his success to the high standard of principles at UPEI. Henry encourages others to never stop learning and believes it's crucial to focus on doing what you love.

In addition to his 20-year career at Ernst & Young, one of the largest accounting firms in the world, Henry still finds time to give back to his community. He is a member of the Board of Pathways to Education, The Sunnybrook Hospital Foundation, The Next 36, and also led the Accounting Division for the United Way Toronto 2011 campaign.
'It's not just about working hard; it's about being open to learning new things wherever you go.' - Trent Henry
