JMSB students compete internationally

The John Molson School of Business (JMSB) made the final round at the prestigious Marshall International Case Competition, held in Los Angeles Feb. 22 to 25. The JMSB team, consisting of four undergraduate students, did exceptionally well for its debut appearance at the annual competition, in which it faced 23 of the world’s finest business schools.

At the same time, another JMSB team faced a heated battle more than 8,000 km away in Oslo, Norway.
