BAC Case Competition

Big Congratulations to Ember Consulting, the winning team in the inaugural Junior/Senior Case Competition sponsored by the UIC Business Advisory Council! They did a terrific job of presenting a complex case (ZARA – Fast Fashion). Finance majors – Carlos Brito (junior), Aman Choudhury (senior), and Anthony Luo (senior) worked together to effectively solve the case and present their recommendations to a distinguished panel of BAC judges. Thank you to our distinguished judges; Larry Holleran (BAC), Ray Roman (BAC), Tim Brunke (BAC), Michael Miller (UIC Faculty), and Rick Thomas (UIC Faculty)!

Case competitions are a terrific arena to practice and demonstrate critical thinking, teamwork, and presentation skills as well as professional presence. These competencies are among those most sought after by employers and are at the center of the CBA’s new Professional Development Program.
