2015
The School is very proud to announce that Team Apex – a group of QUB second year students predominantly from the Management School, have got through to the final of the KPMG International Case Competition, being staged in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Team Apex, representing Ireland will be up against approximately 30 other countries. The competition itself involves being given a detailed case study to consider (first round involved analysing the Qatar 2022 World Cup and the Irish final involved analysing San Leon Energy's fracking operations in Poland). Participants must then carefully review the dossier, identify and analyse the key business issues, develop recommendations and prepare an engaging presentation for the judges. It is the ultimate opportunity to accelerate a student’s awareness of global business while gaining a unique cultural experience.
Team members include:
Jamie Mackenzie (BSc Finance)
Conall McNally (BSc Finance)
Fynn Mckay (BSc Mathematics with Finance)
Mark Curran (BSc International Business with Spanish)
Sarah Mckinley (LLB Law with French)*
*Sarah filled in for Fynn in the Irish finals and will come to Dubai but not compete.
