Two SALCC students, Sherissa St. Marie and Samaki Daniel have participated in the OECS Global Investment Summit, held from May 28 to 30, 2025, at the Royalton Resort in Saint Lucia.


The event aimed to connect regional and international investors, policymakers, and industry leaders who are driving sustainable growth across the Eastern Caribbean.


The students were fully sponsored by the Bank of St. Lucia Fund Management Company.


Sherissa St. Marie, a Sustainable Business and Innovation student, is the owner of The Floral Oasis, launched in March 2024. The business specializes in elegant eternal flower arrangements.


Samaki Daniel, a nursing student, is the owner of a small retail business which he is in the process of registering. They were accompanied by Business lecturer, Jacqueline Charlemagne.


“My experience was amazing and filled with learning,” said Daniel. “I learnt from this experience that with the right encouragement, even the tiniest ambitions can blossom into magnificent realities. I sincerely appreciated this opportunity and can’t wait to see where my small business.


The Floral Oasis goes on from here,” said St. Marie. The summit served as a great platform for our students to explore investment opportunities, engage in high-level financial discussions and expand their business
