What is a Case Competition?
A case competition is a business simulation where students are given a real-world problem faced by a company. Teams analyze the case, develop innovative solutions, and present their recommendations to a panel of judges. It’s a great opportunity to apply classroom knowledge, build teamwork and presentation skills, and compete against students from other schools.
