Global Case Competition Participants

In the last year, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed our lives. We all have to adapt to the new world order by changing our sanitary, social, and professional habits. The 2021 edition will be adapted to suit the needs of all participants and ensure their safety.

The competition will be held online. However, we are working hard to ensure that participant’s experiences go beyond case solving. The participants will have the opportunity to network with likeminded individuals, learn from industry professionals, and create fond memories. The entire Planning Board is looking at creative ways to recreate this, thanks to the use of technology.

We would like to thank all future participants for their trust, and we are looking forward to the upcoming editions, hoping that we can bring back the on-campus component of the competition as soon as possible!
