During the competition, which is organized by students, twelve selected teams, each consisting of four people, work on a real-life case study provided by an experienced partner company. The challenge is to solve the task within 24 hours and present the results to a jury in several rounds. The best teams qualify for the final, where they present their creative solutions to a wide audience and face critical questions.
The Consulting Cup not only offers participants the opportunity to gain valuable practical experience, but also promotes networking in an informal atmosphere. This includes partner speed dating and special workshops that facilitate making intensive contact with renowned companies. All participants benefit from comprehensive support, including catering for the entire duration of the event and an exclusive shuttle service.
The Consulting Cup starts with an official opening and a speed dating session where participants can get to know the partner companies in face-to-face meetings. The day ends with a joint dinner, which provides space for in-depth discussions. On Friday, November 21, workshops will follow to prepare participants for the case study, which will begin afterwards. The 24-hour case ends on Saturday, and the preliminary round presentations will determine the finalists. The competition culminates in the final presentations and a final award ceremony at a gala dinner.
