More than 919 teams from various institutions from Hong Kong, Greater China and Macau regions joined the HKICPA Business Case Competition 2020. After several rounds of rigorous selection, both CUHK teams were amongst the six finalist teams in the undergraduate division to compete on Oral-Presentation Day.
Each team presented their solution to a panel of expert judges and were assessed on their proposal’s quality, analytic methodology, delivery of the presentation, whether the challenges were thoroughly addressed, and responses to enquiries from the judges.
The HKICPA Business Case Competition is an annual event that aims to develop students’ business skills, cultivate their professional judgment, and test their analytics skills and knowledge by working on real-life business scenarios.
