ComCaseCompetition

What is ComCaseCompetition

ComCaseCompetition is an international case competition within the field of communication. It is the ultimate challenge, as you work in a team and apply your academic theory in practice in order to solve the case company's current communication challenge.

10 teams of 4 students will be selected to compete. As a team, you will have 24 hours to solve the case by using your knowledge, skills, experiences and feedback from a communication agency. Throughout the competition you will get involved with international students, influential agencies and innovative companies. After the 24 hours, you will present your solution to a jury of communication experts and academics. The competition and final event takes place at Copenhagen Business School.

ComCaseCompetition 2020

In 2020 the ComCaseCompetition case will be no other than one of the world’s leading consulting groups within engineering, economics and environmental science, COWI.  Due to coronavirus/COVID-19 the competition and final event has been postponed to week 43, October 2020. It will most likely still take place Copenhagen Business School.

The winning team will be invited to an exclusive lunch with COWI’s CEO, Lars-Peter Søbye, who is also Chairman of the Board at the Confederation of Danish Industry. A meeting providing an opportunity to become wiser on life as one of Denmark’s business leaders – and to share observations of COWI with Lars-Peter face to face.

In addition, the victorious team will get the opportunity to contribute to COWI’s employer branding by developing specific content for the company’s global social media profiles. The team has to work as real professionals and sell their ideas to COWI’s SoMe specialists – and if they succeed, get paid as real pros. Constructive and useful feedback is guaranteed.

As a participant you get to:

• work with a 24-hour deadline 
• use your knowledge, skills and experience
• share ideas, obtain feedback, and learn from communication and management experts
• build networks with professional communicators, researchers and leading agencies - maybe even your future employer
• gain more insight into the business world and global communication.
