2004 Fuqua Product Strategy Case Competition

In the autumn of 2004, Notre Dame MBA students entered the Duke University's Fuqua Product Strategy Case Competition alongside 30 other prestigious MBA programs including UCLA's Andersen School of Management, Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business, New York University's Stern School of Business, the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, Northwestern's Kellogg Graduate School of Management, Cornell's Johnson School, Emory's Goizueta Business School, and the Harvard Business School.

Only five teams would make it into the final round of the contest, an unprecedented two of which were from Notre Dame. In the end, it was Notre Dame's Maria Diaz, David Parides, Kevin Wolf, Jordan Carlson, and Jim Ham that won the grand prize; with the exception of Jim, all of them were officers in our own Marketing Club.
