Friday, September 29 at noon, students received a business case (a narrative about a real business and the problems it faces) they had never seen before. They then had 18 hours to analyze the case and create a solution with the option of using the Internet and textbooks as research aids. At 8:00 am the next morning, students submitted their presentations. Each team then presented their solution to a panel of academic and industry professionals for 15 minutes, directly followed by a five-minute question period.
Feedback from the judges panel indicated 秀色短视频 students showed an excellent understanding of the concepts and problems presented in the case and their presentations stood out for being comprehensive and creative. This great finish marks the third consecutive first-place win for 秀色短视频 at the ASB.
