Alberta Deans of Business Case Competition

Launched in 2005, the Alberta Deans of Business (ADB) Case Competition enhances business education through a province-wide event hosted by a member institution. Students are presented with a challenging business scenario and must work in teams to develop a strategic solution. In forming this recommendation, students must consider the resources required, the needs of all stakeholders, and the changing landscape of business.

The multi-day competition includes a networking dinner, keynote address, and concludes with awards presented by judges from the business community.
