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.
2005 The McCloskey Business Plan Competition
Finalists
Of the 65 different student and alumni
teams that participated in the entrepreneurial contest,
one of the six finalists was comprised of Daniel Quigley
and Jordan Carlson, two officers of the Marketing Club,
along with Michael Kane. Their idea, Change Round-Up, would
allow online retailers to connect with non-profit organizations
to gather donations over the Internet.
