Recognition Ceremony 1 PM
We welcome you join us for the Towson University College of Business Fall 2017 Live Strategy Competition.
We are delighted to announce that SECU has matched the McGraw Hill prize for the top team so the total reward for the first-place team will be $2000. Additionally, the first, second, and third place team members will be recognized and invited to join the SECU Young Professional Advisory Board. This new board is part of an on-going partnership with the Towson University College of Business and Economics to leverage the talents of Towson University students. Members will serve in an advisory capacity and be compensated for contributions to SECU’s various strategic initiatives.
We would like to express our on-going appreciation to McGraw Hill Education for again providing refreshments at the Live Strategy events and, in partnership with the Towson University Bookstore, offering printing services to support Section Champions’ final presentations.
This competition is the culminating event for our Capstone Business Policy & Strategy course. This semester, nearly 400 students across 10 class sections worked in teams to research and evaluate the business challenges posed by SECU. Our faculty selected top competitors from each section to present before SECU executives tomorrow in Stephens Hall 310 from 9 AM – Noon in ST 310. The top three teams will be recognized at 1 PM.
We encourage you to stop by to support students’ presentations and to welcome the team of executives from SECU.
