At our last general assembly, it was decided that we could open up for other events to be part of the association and so Business Battlefield has joined CBS Case Competition under the CCC umbrella. For the 100th anniversary of CBS, we received funding to create something extraordinary as part of the celebrations. This led to the creation of Business Battlefield, a competition with the purpose of testing foundational leadership skills with the students. Now that Business Battlefield is part of our family, we see how the students across the CBS Case Competition and Business Battlefield organizations are working together and learning from each other. But for me even more importantly, more competitions mean that we are providing learning and lifetime experiences for more students because they choose our events to invest their time in. Exactly in line with our mission. accessible participation for any student with an interest in case solving. We are reaching more students than ever with our mission." The primary focus areas of the Board this year has been to integrate and optimize our modus operandi and how “ we provide support to both our organizations while also CBS Case Competition also went broader than ever this developing the concept and framework for the CCC year with the new GLOBAL competition concept.

  • Percevied Benefits and Issues of Student Learning in Business Case Competition Comparison Study of Serbia, Australia and Thailand
    Athens Journal of Education - Volume 5, Issue 1 – Pages 43-60 Percevied Benefits and Issues of Student Learning in Business Case Competition Comparison Study of Serbia, Australia and Thailand By Vesna Damnjanović Bill Proud† ‡ Nopporn Ruangwanit The main aims of this research paper are to identify, compare and contrast different perspectives of students from Serbia, Australia and Thailand regarding their perception of the case learning method. This research study investigates the student benefits, problems and most difficult tasks in defining marketing strategy at business undergraduate case competitions where students from the University of Belgrade, QUT and Thammasat University compete. The quantitative survey methodology has been applied in three different countries and all respondents were students who competed at undergraduate business case competitions all around the world. We used descriptive statistics for presenting results in the study. The findings have identified that the main benefits for using case learning for students in all countries are: learning experience, personal and professional improvement, improving managerial skills and being more attractive in the job market. Furthermore, the negative aspects of case learning have been explored. This research should provide a better direction for professors and students, which could help them with improving the learning process with case studies in the field of marketing. Keywords: Australia, case competition, Serbia, student benefits, Thailand Introduction Authors define case studies as "a description of a real event, which includes a decision, a challenge, an opportunity, a problem or an attitude with which a person or people in an organization face" (Erskine, Leenders, & Mauffette-Leender, 1998). A business case imitates a real situation.

    CENTRAL EUROPEAN CASE COMPETITION THE WEBEYE CASE 2020 THE WEBEYE CASE CENTRAL EUROPEAN CASE COMPETITION 2020 3 CENTRAL EUROPEAN CASE COMPETITION 2020 n a busy Monday morning, Mr. Pál Németh, CEO of WebEye Tele­ matics Ltd. was sitting in the regular traffic jam in Budapest down­ Otown. He was thinking about the previous strategic meeting where WebEye’s (WE) management team discussed the latest strategic questions the company is facing. WebEye showed significant growth in the past years. From a small, Hungary-based tech start-up it has become a regional player with state-of-the-art telematics solutions. Today, WebEye is a leading provider of road transportation telematics solutions for businesses that are eager to benefit from cutting-edge telematics innovations on their light and heavy commercial vehicles. For almost 20 years, WebEye professionals have been supporting customers with best-in-class service, helping them grow and en­ hance their businesses. Telematics is becoming an increasingly popular tool for companies in the age of digitalization. Pál is keenly aware of how WebEye has gradually developed competitive advantages in the telematics market. Nevertheless, the indus­ try faces new challenges: first, customers have become more price-sensitive, leading to fierce price competition among industry players. Furthermore, as new technologies are emerging, WebEye is looking to provide innovative solutions in a dynamically changing market environment. The company has arrived at a crossroads as “we have been working on a completely new service model, called Telematics-as-a-Service” – commented Pál, while crossing Liberty Bridge in his new car. “The current market shock caused by the coronavirus pandemic appears to rearrange existing market positions and opens questions regarding how the market may recover once this is over“.
