We have teamed up with a corporate case sponsor for this event and will be giving out lots of cool prizes including scholarship money, swag, and gift cards.

 

The competition will run on a Friday from 9 am to 1 pm and will be totally free for your students. We will provide a catered lunch during the awards ceremony from 1240pm to 130pm.  

 

Competitions will include:

  • Marketing strategy case competition
  • resume competition, 
  • Sales Presentation Competition
  • elevator pitch competition. 
  • T-shirt artwork design competition 
  • advertising competition. 
  • information booth scavenger hunt. 
  • Social Media Competition

We encourage students to sign up for multiple events. The only competitions that will require prior team preparation will be the marketing case competition and T-shirt design Competition, which we will post 2 weeks in advance.  The resume and personal pitch competition will require some individual preparation to customize a resume and elevator pitch to suit a provided job description, which we will provide 2 weeks before the event. The rest of the competitions will be presented and completed on the day.

 

You could bring as many interested students as you wish. Please mark your calendars and let your students know about this fun competition. Registration details will follow after the new year.
