What is the IACBE Case Competition?
For the past 8 years, CapSource has served as IACBE’s trusted partner for experiential learning. We’ve been working together to provide IACBE member and non-member institutions with a way to challenge their students through a Live Case Competition. This approach allows our shared network of schools to test out our high-impact experiential learning technology while enabling IACBE to incorporate students into the annual conference in a way that helps them develop professionally.
About the IACBE Partnership

Case Project Details:
This year, students will be working on a strategic go-to-market strategy that will include a complete rebrand given the additional services/solutions that they are bringing to market. The mission is to help the company separate themselves from a one-dimensional traditional financial services provider to an all-in-one, boutique FinServices FinTech firm.
This is an exciting opportunity for teams to dive into a real-world project where they’ll develop strategic insights to help position the company for its next phase of success.
