Last weekend, one undergraduate team and two MBA teams competed in the 59th annual International Collegiate Business Strategy Competition.  Universities from as far away as Scotland and Canada competed as well as many universities from around the US. The teams worked all semester to run their simulated company, provide a business plan and an annual report, and then present to their judges (Board of Directors) in person on Saturday. Their performance was outstanding and each team went home with at least two awards.
