Battling it out in Boston

Luka and Josh (AFM students) secured 3rd place at the Boston Stock Pitch Competition, impressing judges with their "buy" recommendation of Pet Valu backed by extensive research. They credit SAF extracurriculars with helping to prepare them for the competition and emphasize the value of learning from peers, alumni, and competition experiences.

These students, divided into three subteams — Marketing & Culture, Corporate Relations, and Meals & Logistics — have particular roles and responsibilities which ensure the class can become immersed in a new culture, meet with company executives from various industries, and gain insight into the world of global business operations.

The Corporate Relations Team for the upcoming International Study Course trip to South Korea shares their process for connecting with and setting up meetings with companies that are sure to provide the group with valuable insights into various industries.

A student team reflects on their participation at the Global Case Competition at Harvard University. The students discuss the competition itself, the weeks leading up to the competition, the gala following the event, and what they learned throughout the process.
