Success at the 19th National Case Study Competition in Budapest

Between the 10th and 12th of March, 2018 the 19th National Case Study Competition was held in Budapest, organized by the Corvinus University of Budapest and the EVK College for Advanced Studies. Similarly to last year, the competition in 2018 has been won by a team of the GTK Business Consulting Club from Cluj-Napoca.

The international competition was organized with two rounds and every university could delegate a maximum of three teams for the first qualifying round. After the online qualification round 15 teams could participate in the final round of the prestigious event, among them three teams representing the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration of the Babeș–Bolyai University and in the same time the GTK Business Consulting Club. These teams were: team 4in1 (Boros Éva, Fekete Réka, Horváth Adrienn and Szabó László), team Synergy (Bálint Alexandra-Teodóra, Éltes Rita, Deák Péter and Géger Gyopár), and team Prizma (GTK members Kiss Norbert and Tankó Attila, and Fábián István and Lázár Ábel, respectively).

This year the 15 participating teams had to work on a case study focusing on ALDI Hungary and the future of discount stores in the country. The teams had one and a half day to develop their solutions. Four teams qualified to the final round, one of them was team 4in1 from Cluj-Napoca, who have won the competition.
