The Emerging Markets Case Competition is an opportunity for MBA students interested in global business strategies, focusing on emerging markets and social impact, to address challenges in emerging markets through real case studies. Teams from top MBA programs will compete by providing a set of recommendations to an unpublished case challenge that will be judged by a panel of corporate executives and international development professionals. Student teams will be evaluated on the critical issues of the case, the quality of their analysis, the feasibility of their recommendations, and their overall delivery and ability to navigate the question and answer session.
