The call for “CaseKey” Business Case Solution Competition is already open. The international competition will be held in Armenia for the second time, this time with the engagement of more stakeholders.

The competition is aimed at giving students the opportunity to apply the business knowledge they have acquired to provide solutions to real business ideas. According to the format, after a 5-month training program, the participants are divided into teams and are assigned with the business case for that year, after which they are given 72 hours to solve it.

“The event held in 2021 was in fact the first competition to solve business cases in Armenia, and we have an intention of making it continuous, involving even more stakeholders.
