Global Business Case Competition 2018

Global Business Case Competition 2018, as organized by Michael G. Foster School of Business, University of Washington, will be held in Seattle, United States from April 9 - 14, 2018.

This week-long competition provides students a chance to build cross-cultural relationships, experience the city of Seattle and most importantly, participate in two real-world case studies to analyze and develop a business recommendation. The competition culminates on the University of Washington campus, where each team presents their long case solution to a panel of judges who select the GBCC Champions. The judges of the competition are experienced professionals from the local and regional business community.
