The story
Global Summers Academy is an Ontario-registered travel-education operator that offers international summer school programs awarding Ontario high school credits. Powered by Sam Blyth, the company builds on a 47-year experiential-education tradition. The business collects tuition-scale fees from Canadian families and must manage cross-border currency exposure for program delivery in Europe, Latin America, and elsewhere — making FX hedging a core operational concern.
