On behalf of the John Molson School of Business (JMSB), I would like to thank you for your generous support of the 34th annual John Molson MBA International Case Competition. This competition is now among the most prestigious of its kind in the world and we are very proud that this is one of our school’s signature annual events.

The competition represents a wonderful opportunity for participants to develop many competencies that are essential for business leaders. Due to the generous participation of industry supporters, the event also provides an occasion for stu-dents, sponsors and professionals to connect and develop valuable partnerships.

At JMSB, we are firm believers that an important part of a business student’s edu-cation occurs beyond the classroom and this competition is a terrific example of that. The support of the corporate community plays a vital role in making this pos-sible.

Thank you once again for your invaluable contribution to the development tomor-row’s business leaders,

Steve Harvey, PhDDean, John Molson School of Business

Message from the Dean

In January 2015, MBA students from around the world will gather in Montreal for the 34th annual John Molson MBA International Case Competition. During the student-run event over 150 participants from 16 countries representing 36 univer-sities test their skills, intuition and stamina in an intense week-long competition. During that week, more than 270 seasoned senior executives donated their time and expertise to judge the presentation of the MBA teams, and over 300 volun-teers ensure that everything is done efficiently, be it guiding competing teams to ensuring to inputting judges’ scores.

None of this monumental effort would be possible without sponsors like you. Your generosity provides the backbone of the competition and, without it, the John Molson International Case Competition would simply not be able to showcase the talents of MBA students and bring the vibrant Montreal business community to an international stage.

On behalf of the John Molson MBA program, thank you for your commitment to the competition.

Merci beaucoup,

Sandra Betton, PhDMBA Program Director

Since its inception back in 1981, the John Molson MBA International Case Competition has been bringing together talented MBA students from around the world with senior executives for an intense week of case analy-sis, presentations and socializing activities. Today, the 34 year-old event is more than just a case competition: it is an extraordinary opportunity to cre-ate global connections. Recognizing the value of these connections, com-panies like yours have continuously lent their support.

Being a sponsoring partner is a unique opportunity for businesses to ex-pand their client base, gain visibility and capture a select audience of in-ternational MBA students and over 250 Montreal based C-level executives volunteering to take part in this one-of-a-kind experience.

We thank our loyal sponsors for being a valued part of this great event, and extend our warmest welcome to our new sponsors. Because of your gen-erous contributions, the global impact of John Molson’s MBA International Case Competition is made possible.
