Corporate partners are invited to participate!
The annual Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Grow the Good in Business™ Case Competition is underway. Corporate partners have the opportunity to work with top business students and gain innovative ideas for advancing DE&I in their organizations. The competition fosters mutually beneficial relationships between students and sponsoring organizations, which is an important advantage in talent recruitment.
The Competition joins the forces of students at the Mendoza College of Business and business leaders who are committed to equity and inclusion in the workplace. The competition challenges undergraduate and graduate student teams to solve a business case focused on a current DE&I issue while engaging with companies willing to share their real-world challenges and expectations in striving for a more equitable society.
Depending on the level of engagement, corporate partners supply judges and/or keynote speakers for the final round of competition, host networking events, and have the opportunity to engage with student participants on panels and in workshops or office hours. If you are interested in learning more about corporate partnership, or other DE&I initiatives at Mendoza, please contact Kristen Collett-Schmitt, Associate Dean for Innovation and Inclusion, Teaching Professor and NDDCEL Faculty Fellow. We are grateful to existing corporate partners include KPMG, Kemper, ADP, 1st Source Bank, Gibson, and South Bend - Elkhart Regional Partnership.
Please mark your calendars and join us for the exciting final round of competition - free and open to the public - on April 12, 2024 in the Stayer Center on the campus of Notre Dame. Go Irish!
