ACT team qualified for the finals of the Kogod Case Competition

One of the ACT teams has been qualified for the final round of the Kogod Case Competition. The Case Competition is one of the premier annual events of the American University's Kogod School of Business in Washington, DC, and it attracts students from the US and all over the world.

The competition is open to all graduate and undergraduate students of the American University (AU) and invited Kogod partner schools which include the Business School of ACT– the American College of Thessaloniki. The ACT team consisted of Chloe Clancy, Daniel Lio, Asia Sanchez, Rohan Mehta, and Jai Amin, American students who were studying abroad at ACT through the NUin Program.

The competition focuses on an issue faced by an organization and participants work together to recommend solutions to the leadership team. The participants have the opportunity to sharpen their communication skills, presentation style, and problem-solving techniques.

The first round was held online in November 2021. The participants received the case study and then submitted a video pitch with their proposed recommendations. The top five teams in each division will be invited to Kogod, in Washington DC, in early February to present their full recommendations in a 10 to 15-minute presentation followed by a ten-minute Q&A before a panel of judges.

Congratulations to the ACT team and the American students!
