DCU Business School Updates February 2023
Schlesinger Global Family Enterprise Case Competition
In January DCU and Arizona State University (ASU) entered a joint-undergraduate team to compete at the Schlesinger Global Family Enterprise Case Competition (SG-FECC) at the University of Vermont’s Grossman School of Business, USA - DCU’s first time entering a team.
The annual global case competition prepares students to understand the critical issues that are unique to family enterprise by applying the knowledge and expertise they have developed in the classroom towards solving complex family business cases.
The strong DCU-ASU partnership was evidenced at the SG-FECC Awards Ceremony when team coaches Dr Catherine Faherty (DCU) and Eva Vazquez-Ortiz (ASU) received the 2023 SG-FECC Undergraduate Joint Team Coach Award in recognition of their “commitment to offering constructive, helpful and insightful feedback.”
