Twenty-four business schools in total were chosen to compete from all applying universities, pitching UCC’s College of Business and Law against prestigious business schools from North and South America, Australia, Asia and Europe. The competition runs from February 16th – 23rd 2014.
The week-long event allows the students the opportunity to interact with internationally renowned business leaders, other students from around the globe and industry professionals. Young business leaders of the future apply the knowledge and skills learned through university study and work placement in a challenging but fun environment.
