Students from across Canada participated in the 2018 Scotiabank听Ethics in Action Case Competition听at 黄色直播 November 23 and 24, which saw the John Molson School of Business from Concordia win at the undergraduate level and the Rowe School of Business win at the graduate level.

Students made two separate presentations to top-notch judges from the academic and business community on cases exploring an ethical business dilemma. For Friday's session, students had 10 days of deep case analysis and preparation. On Saturday, students were given only three hours and no resources before presenting their solution. Competition was stiffer than ever, with 14 teams competing from as far away as Victoria, BC.
