McGill BCom students finish third overall at the Inter-Collegiate Business Competition
A team of three BCom students (Monika Dygut, Kate Malcolm and Emaad Sami) finished third overall at the ICBC (Inter-Collegiate Business Competition) in Business Policy, held at Queen's University on January 13-15, 2005.
In October 2004, they first participated in a written case competition, finishing in the top six universities out of 25 business schools. These six teams were invited to Queen's University this January, where they had 5.5 hours to crack a new case that was presented to a panel of representatives of the business community. At this event, they finished third overall — a fantastic accomplishment!
Special thanks go to Professors Richard Donovan and Omar Toulan, who devoted much time and energy coaching the team.
The Inter-Collegiate Business Competition is Canada's oldest and largest undergraduate business case competition. Hosted annually by Queen's University students, the ICBC attracts business students from across the nation and beyond. Competitors participate in a preliminary round for the chance to compete in the final round in January.
Besides competition, the ICBC provides students and faculty with many opportunities to interact with others. The ICBC is an ideal opportunity for students, faculty and prominent members of the business community to interact, and exchange ideas and experiences.
