HEC CSR Challenge
March 11, 2023
The mission of the CSR Challenge is to promote sustainability and social responsibility while encouraging future leaders to think differently and to explore solutions to social and environmental challenges.
Description
The main purpose of this event is to inculcate the spirit of sustainable development and awareness towards social responsibilities around the world.
The competition will provide you and your team an opportunity to think outside the box and explore solutions to the social and environmental challenges faced by modern businesses. It will also give you an opportunity to develop skills and acquire knowledge as well as the possibility to expand your professional network with students and distinguished judges coming from around the world.
MBAs from around the globe compete for 2 days to come up with the best solutions to the cases presented. While each team’s solutions and recommendations are unique and noteworthy, only some are truly innovative insights and are therefore rewarded. This year the total prize pool of HEC CSR Challenge is $10,500 CAD.
Last year, the 2-day CSR Challenge brought together 24 teams from Canada, the United States, the UK, France, and Spain. The event included several feedback sessions where the judges provided their comments to the students and a networking event to expand their professional network. These were very appreciated by the participants and will be included in this years' program.
