About
This year’s first-place team from the University of Kansas impressed the judges with a solution that was not only innovative but also practical and well-researched. Their outstanding performance earned them $1,000 and the top spot in the competition. The judging panel, composed of high-ranking executives from St. Louis companies engaged in global business, evaluated each team without knowing which school they represented, ensuring fairness and objectivity. The KU winning team demonstrated exceptional critical thinking, collaboration, and the ability to apply classroom knowledge to real-world issues, skills that will serve them well in their future careers.
