In addition to the conference, the Shipping Union has the privilege of hosting a Case Competition, with a price of DKK 30,000 for the winning team.
THE CASE
The Case Competition is organized in collaboration with our valued sponsor and partner, Copenhagen Merchants, whom many of you had the opportunity to visit last Monday.
While we cannot disclose too much at this stage, we can share that the case will focus on the critical infrastructure of commodities produced in the highly sensitive regions of Russia, Ukraine, Romania, and Poland.
The case will be released on October 21st, and the submission deadline is November 6th. The selected groups advancing to the final on November 15th will be announced on November 11th. These groups will present their case to an audience, including a panel of judges, who will decide the winner.
FORMING A GROUP
Each group should consist of a minimum of 3 (three) and a maximum of 5 (five) members. Groups must register by October 20th at the latest.
The selected groups for the final will automatically secure spots for the Friday session of the conference.
We encourage you to share this exciting opportunity with your fellow students, including the exchange students enrolled in IST related classes.
Best regards,
CBS Shipping Union
