A
multinational team of International MBA students (composed of Charles Warren
from the US, Christian Bonaparte Nordendorf Olson of Denmark, and Itishree Gupta and Saurav
Raychaudhuri, who are both from India) was ranked second among the four
finalists during the 6th edition of the International Graduate Competition,
which took place at the end of April at HEC Montreal.
This
international competition, which has attracted participants from schools around
the globe (Australia, Canada, France, Thailand, and the United States, to name
a few), pits teams of four students against each other in a challenge to
conceive a new growth and internationalisation strategy for the Ecotech
Montréal Cluster within a given timeline.
The emlyon
business school Early Makers team was commended by the Vice President for its
clear understanding of the context and constraints faced by the cluster, and
the quality of its entrepreneurial approach.
Charles
Warren, one of the four participants of the emlyon business school team, also
won the prize for the “best presentation by a candidate.” The team was put
together by Ricky Moore, professor of entrepreneurship and Director of MSc in
Global Entrepreneurship and Innovation. A big congratulations to them!
