Want to showcase your skills?

This is your chance to develop a business strategy and pitch directly to a panel of judges from Microsoft.

The Kellstadt Case Competition is a unique opportunity that allows students to compete in teams to solve a current business challenge. The competition objective is to enhance Kellstadt student engagement with the business community and provide a platform to enrich the student experience through learning and networking. Students will be able to apply learned class concepts, work in teams to develop a business solution, pitch their recommendations, and receive personalized feedback from judges and professors.

This year, we are thrilled to offer a case submitted directly from Microsoft and judged by a panel of knowledgeable Microsoft employees.

The competition is open to all MBA/MS students at the Kellstadt Graduate School of Business. Students will work in teams of 4-6 members to develop a strategy and deliver a 20-minute presentation that outlines the recommended course of action for the company.
